Did you ask yourself how kc verified his numbers? Why don't you ask him?

That's what Cacarulo did too! But two independent researches stating the same result is proof of a sort. Submitting the CA itself for verification rather than just the numbers would be even better.

No, and it wasn't intended to. Is that a requirement for posting here? CR asked for verification of a published figure, KC supplied it. Fair question, fair answer.
