Nice on Swen, for pointing that out.

To be fair they've evidently had some very specific requirements for classifying whether or not a player choose to romance one of the companions.
The interview makes it sound like 98% of the players decided to romance a companion, but considering how far into the game it happens there is literally no way that's possible.
When exactly the romance happens might vary from one player to another depending on the order they explored and did quests in, but even if you give it a generous estimate I'd say it's still way over than halfway through the game. 2/3 through or possibly even 3/4 is probably a way safer bet.
