You don't just throw something together in 10 minutes and call it a startup.
This isn't a startup. It's nothing.

You don't need to build an airport, you rent space in existing airports.
Renting in the main city airports is very expensive but the ones further out aren't so bad.

Bullshit alert! Bullshit alert!
The notion that children learn faster is a myth.
There is no such thing as a "flexible brain".
Children learn faster because they have to, i.e. they can't get a chocolate bar unless they ask for it. Most adults learning a new language have the luxury of being able to use their native language to survive, and tend to default to the easy option if given the chance, especially if they are learning in a country that doesn't use the language they are learning, in which case they can't use it all the time anyway.

People don't choose a server so they can use the name they want.They play on the server their friends on (or chose a random one).
If the name isn't available they come up with a new name.

It doesn't matter whether it's right or wrong. People do this, it's a fact of life.
If you live in Japan (as a white male) you will be commonly referred do as a 外国人 (foreigner) by every Japanese person.
Does that mean that all Japanese are racist? No.

Sorry but this is too easy to explain.
The high number of unique names comes from the fact that two players can't have the same name on the same server.
As for mages, they are probably the most popular as most players have at least one as an alt for various reasons. By having more of them, and the limit of no same names on the same server, you get more variation.
It boggles the mind that somebody could perform a study like this and overlook one of the most important details.
