matching criteria for each dimension will receive stats while only one
criteria across dimension received stats previously
Example
If an ad is targeted for a placement and two verticals as below, the ad
will be attributed both to the placement "pets.com/dogs" and to the
vertical "pets > dogs" (the most specific criteria in that dimension)
● Placement
○ pets.com/dogs
