Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that having many Wi-Fi devices slows the network?

Unclear. Two reference and peer-reviewed sources indicate that having more devices in the same area can lower Wi-Fi throughput and deplete system resources, but they describe the effect only in general terms without quantifying how much speed is lost.
