This is a really cool application of research to describe something difficult to grok for the average user (myself included) but which really highlights the benefit of using an anonymized search engine with static results. It's like saying, "There's room for us both." But with real metrics and data.
I think this rests on the architect / technical lead to force their minions to use TDD or something similar. You can't expect a noob out of college to be responsible, that's just asking for trouble.
I would say, just brief them at the start "I might fire you tomorrow, go in expecting that, we'll set you up something else if I do. Don't rely on this." Kind of like the way you lend money to friends.
That said, you probably shouldn't lend money to friends.

"[A] 2014 review in Science tried to quantify these declines by synthesizing the findings of existing studies and found that a majority of monitored species were declining, on average by 45 percent."
