I already said you cannot quantify ny a currency OTHER THAN the dollar. The value of the pound distorts any conclusion if calculated by that pound. They are the value of exports from the UK economy - the UK Economy uses the Pound Sterling. Are you saying that Eurostat are wrong to use the Euro when calculating the performance of the EU Economy? Yes. Since no other country uses the pound and the UK has experienced important inflation, it is perfectly possible to value less trade as a higher value.

Our resident genius doesnt get it either. If i sold sweets and used to sell Mars bars for 50p last year, and this year sold them for 75p, i cannot claim to have sold more. I may indeed have sold less.

Have you told Eurostat they are wrong to use the Euro? This doesnt make sense. The stats you quoted were in pounds. No reference to euros because not every country in the EU uses euros. The only true value is if everyone uses the same value...the dollar.

Checking the export sales from before the referendum, with an inflation calculator against present sales shows that it is not 'mere inflation', because anything less than the value of what we used to sell (adjusted for inflation) would indicate failure.
£340 billion is well above the pre referendum threshold.
If we had stayed in, if we'd continued at 2015 performance, we'd be selling £287 billion to the EU, or less, and remoaners would be deleriously happy. All that mattered to them was free movement and EU citizenship. The fact that our country was in decline didn't bother them at all.

So why do Eurostat use Euros when they publish their stats on EU economic performance? Are they trying to hoodwink you? The information is for the consumption of the EU. When you can prove that such information is not available as shown in different formats, we might have a discussion.
