Does more volume mean deeper claims for Guangdong?
Each dot is one of Guangdong’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Guangdong’s own 16.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
