Is there any debate that Automattic isn't intentionally sowing this confusion and profiting from it? I mean, the hero section on the WordPress.com landing page is "37% of the web is built on WordPress. More bloggers, small businesses, and Fortune 500 companies use WordPress than all other options combined. Join the millions of people that call WordPress.com home."

Are people who are new to WordPress supposed to understand that this largely refers to the WordPress project and not WordPress.com? Doesn't that "join...WordPress.com" at the end suggest that the 37% number applies to WordPress.com?
