The slope which increases, the slope is slightly greater at the right side than the left. Every continuous curve looks linear if you zoom in enough, that’s pretty much the basis of calculus. I think you might need to review how exponents work before hammering your opinions about them. You keep insisting on vibes-based definitions to people who clearly have more mathematical education than you.
Instead of doubling down on a misunderstanding, maybe consider the opportunity to learn from others and correct your misconceptions for the future.
Then what are we arguing about?
What exponential growth fundamentally is.
Exponential growth is exponential, we done here?
No, since you still seem to think it’s the same as linear
What is this graphic exponential or linear
Looks exponential to me
Sigh. What about it looks exponential?
The tell tale smoothness?

Lol. You’re so off base. DATA defines the curve. If the DATA does not exhibit exponential behavior it is not exponential. Simple as that.
