Also how on earth is this chart run:

 

54 - 38 - 24 - 14 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 2 - 2 - 5 - 13 - 21 - 38 - 50 - 54 - 62 - 73 - 95 - 95 - 100

Endless Love - 9 weeks at #1, 13 weeks in the Top 10, 19 weeks in the Top 40, 27 weeks on the chart

is bigger than this chart run:

 

40 - 12 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 2 - 7 - 11 - 16 - 22 - 26 - 28 - 30 - 41 - 49 - (7 - 3 - 30) 

I Will Always Love You - 14 weeks at #1, 16 weeks in the Top 10, 25 weeks in the Top 40, 26 weeks on the chart (original run) 

 

They don't just use inverse system. They also adjust to the average chart runs of their respective eras/climates.  

 

Only 3 songs during the 80s spent 9+ weeks at #1 whereas 11 songs spent 9+ weeks at #1 during the 90s so they definitely take the climates into consideration.

Not a top 55 to include certain artists

So good to see Madonna on this list, but there are so many classics in the top 50.
