    Would anyone expect that they were anyway?

    Even if you consider

    • sites getting bought up and rehosted elsewhere
    • sites changing names
    • personal throw-away WordPress sites
    • sites for educational purposes made by the students themselves
    • sites going bankrupt
    • news site, social media channels closing down

    Can’t see why this isn’t very natural, and I’m actually surprised it’s not higher if you consider how fast that field is moving.
