What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Salesforce Sales Cloud. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 2 of the 2 answers that named Salesforce Sales Cloud and are not a share of its labels.
