I'm referring to the Wiki page. Your the one that referenced it.

I'm not sure what a speculative thread does.

Again, do you have reading comprehension issues? The source from the wiki page, as pointed out here, is from the Polygon article.

Did you read the Polygon article? Can you see in the Polygon article the line that says:

Around 60 percent of its 100-plus person team got their pilot license in the course of making Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Again, I am bringing to your attention your issues with reading comprehension. Please read carefully.  And please read the Polygon article and find that line, which is the source for the wiki page.  That wiki page does cite the Polygon article at the very bottom.

There wasn't a big fuss until @tpete61 came into this thread. This thread was mostly normal. And then @tpete61 had the audacity to claim I am "posting stuff that has no factual basis" when BrieffiesWF first pointed out the source for the wiki page, and then I confirmed BrieffiesWF's source. On further inspection, the wiki page actually does cite the Polygon article as a source at the very bottom of the wiki page.
