FWIW, my experience conforms with the latter (the number of requested accommodations are rising quickly) but not the former. Smallish sample size but my sense has been students who are struggling for reasons owing to behavior or ability have been leaning on these accommodations but they are not helping much.
The authors of the paper found, unsurprisingly, that race/ethnicity and family background were the most important factors in outcomes, at least in the short term. Other work has shown that the most important aspect of family background is genetic, so these two are arguably correlated. The correlations fall in later life but these two are still at the top.
For the first 20 years or so after this house was built, the smog in LA was terrible. I doubt the residents got those magnificent views too often. The 60s and 70s directors who used the house as a location must have chosen filming dates carefully.

As far as the migration to my area, damn I can verify there are almost more New Jersey and New York license plates in any public parking area than there are resident Pennsylvania plates.
The trouble with this argument is that women could dismiss it easily as the foundational works are largely by men and this was because of sexism, not because of historical validation.
So I’d invite us all to think about how to win such arguments, and not flog dead dead horses and strawmen amongst ourselves.
A better approach would be inviting women’s attention to perusing works by women (sometimes just oral traditions) from earlier historical periods. These works would inform them of all the work that women historically did to keep the societies working – and have now been neglected.
Our “modern” society has women and men doing men’s work - while nobody knows how to do the women’s work properly.
It’s past the point of argument. Ideologues are impervious to rational argument, as already has been amply demonstrated.
The purpose of presenting data like this is to inform, not to persuade.
This is true but it’s not what ideologues care about. Instead, they would simply accuse anyone who said this of being a tool of the patriarchy: the greatest evil in the history of the world.
