Ingress players have dealt with a lack of portals in rural areas for years now. The portal density in that game correlates pretty closely with the player density. Applying that data to a new game, with a new playerbase, doesn’t suddenly render that data useless or discriminatory.

It is representative of where millions of people work and live. And it does work for the audience of the new game. Just not for everybody.
