Or Roman trade volume before the Fall of Rome.
Not to mention what you describe is not technological improvement but increase in data or money flows, not the same.

Total volume of usage is not an advancement, it’s orthogonal.

Those are measuring the utility of a technological advancement by looking at usage, not the pace of advancement of said technology.
