Won't the search term count include at least two identifiers for most people -- phone and email?

No. It comes from metadata. So they'll see that joeblow@gmail is in contact with someone interesting and will search to see who else.

But if they also want to know who Joe talks to on the phone, isn't that a separate search?

Not entirely sure on the FISA side, bc they got running "correlated" IDs approved in 2008, but then I'm not sure they used them.

On EO 12333 they'd all get correlated, as I understand it.
