Does anyone really trust the install counts provided by the Play Store

Looking at the bottom number of downloads on Minecraft which is 10 million and costs $6.99. I wonder. Did the app really make $69,900,000? WTF?

AND it's reporting 10 million to 50 million downloads. For all we know it could be in the 40's and that means it could be $279,600,000. That's insane! (- fees etc)

And the play store lists in app purchases between $0.99 and $49.99. Can't even imagine that.

Does anyone really believe download installs listed on the play store?

Is it even worth it to go for a removable battery device when you cant find a replacement a couple of years after you purchase it? What do you think/prefer? PS. I realize this is not exactly fault of android OS, but ...
