How many, in what domain, and over what period?

Do they also do this when giving clients legal advice?

Lawyers make such assertions all the time.

Actually, at current rates, it will overtake the United States by
2034, in far less than one century.

China is growing at an annual rate of 9.9%; the USA is growing at an
annual rate of 3.5%. The USA has a GDP of $12.49 trillion; China has
a GDP of $2.225 trillion. It will thus take China 27.8 years to
overtake the United States. There is good reason to believe that the
actual time will be less, since the growth rate of China is
increasing.
