Having no idea what the real trend is, couldn't any other factors counteract the perverse effect, making both parent's and your observations true at the same time ?

For instance rhe sustained efforts that lead to ACA peobably didn't stop there, and more effort surely were made to reduce healthcare cost from there. If ACA could be passed in the first place, it wouldn't be surprising if other effective actions were also passed as well ?

Absolutely. There could be other factors that are counteracting the effect, including those within the ACA itself since the bill contains many changes to healthcare, not just the restriction on medical loss ratios.
