That said, I don't have results prior to the introduction of the feature to compare, but I'm guessing that the feature is more likely to generate traffic than to reduce it to the sites referenced. As for some sites that may be losing traffic because the facts from other sites are at the top, that's no different than many other algo and display changes.
I think it's a great feature... and, after trying a bunch of searches, I feel that these results are bringing sites to the top that wouldn't otherwise be there.
