From PS1 onwards no leader sold less than 100M, and during its first couple years it wasn't even on a high sales curve. So as I said it's more like a disrupture on the market than an anomaly.

As you put "deviation from the common rule", not "deviation from the previous rule". So it by standard is that it goes back to what it was before the anomaly.

Since GB which release 3y before PS1 sold more than 100M. So your use of anomaly see a little strange and more like to dismiss the point made by the other user. But since it is off-topic I'll stop.

As usual, you're creating definitions out of your mind. Good day, sir.

Show me were is the regular use of anomaly to define something that was one way and changed instead of something that was one way, had something different happen and then returned to how it was.

The way you use your definition would mark every single change and discovery as anomalies instead of changes.
