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.
You don’t get Nobel prizes for going to math class. What you do get is a basic understanding of math, which is more than sufficient to correct you on this. This was covered in Algebra, man. Review your notes.
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.
Buddy, I can say with confidence I’ve taken math courses you’ve never even heard of. You do not know what you’re talking about.
Ooh you took a math class. When are they delivering your Nobel prize?

What was covered? That functions are used to describe data sets?
In algebra? The basic properties of exponential functions, for one.
Let’s start there then. What are the basic properties of exponential functions?
