1) in the days before the massive view gains, they were actually underperforming in views. the view boost that happened afterwards seemed to perfectly balance out the lack of views from before

2) it was a very sudden spike in views, and then it died down just as quickly

3) 200+ million views in one day is a very ridiculous number in general

this is why i think it's somehow bugged or "inflated"
