Because it shows the impact of the marketing gimmick for her fifth album. It shows that the marketing gimmick gave her more success in sells compared to her previous albums.

I am still kinda confuse on the point that you are trying to make.
We are comparing the conventional way of marketing an album compared to the new way she did it for her fifth album. I think it is valid to compare her sales within 3 days because she stilled used a marketing gimmick.
I am just comparing the impact of the two different marketing gimmicks.

But all those things factor into marketing.
The timing she released it was a "marketing tactic"
The fact that she waited to release her album after everyone released theres was a "marketing tactic"
