$2024 > $4300 is more than double, while also assuming saving an extra $50,000 in downpayment while that cost increased.

Although the down payment has less impact. But nonetheless, that lower payment boosts the loan to about $4600.

Wages aren't doubling.

Oh, I agree with you, and concur with the spirit of the infographic. I just like accurate calculations!
