The change between non-overlapping survey periods clears the combined published margin AND is big enough to matter next to the peer spread.
Broadband rose 6.0 percentage points between the 2015-2019 and 2020-2024 surveys, from 86.8% to 92.7% - more than the combined survey margin (±2.0pp).

The change between non-overlapping survey periods is within the margin, but each of the last 4 annual releases moved the 5-year average the same way. Direction is a reliable early signal; its size is not.
SNAP changed less than the survey can measure between the 2014-2018 and 2019-2023 surveys (17.7% then, 18.7% now; margin ±2.3pp). The newest releases lean upward: each of the last 4 annual updates moved the 5-year average the same way - an early signal, not a measured change.*
