Had it flopped, the embarassement due to the effort she put in it would have been enormous and she knew that.... she took the risk.
The album crossed the 4M mark and spawn hits (Drunk reached #2, as you know very well). Urban hits such as Partition and Flawless, 7/11 reached #13 on the HOT 100 as well. Bare in mind that he ONLY single she pushed on pop was XO and with no radio deal and not a single promo performance for it in the US.
We all know dam well how much she couldn't care less for hit singles nowadays by the way she handles her releases... she's barely tries it and is still getting them hits  Ain't no reason to be dreaming when it's been her reality since she started. You are the one tripping...
You don't need to mention that ANTI*** is platinum... we all know that very well and will never forget this joke

Oh, GAWD please, let NOT get into singles success, cause you know DAMN WELL ST's singles success doesnt come close to unapologetic, i mean Diamonds alone sold more than ST singles combined twice, and i actually would be embarrassed if my fave sold only 4 millions with a Re-release, you guys shoudnt even mention this cause it quite a catastrophe, should i dare to bring examples of succesful re-releases ??
And let not act like Rihanna TRIES to make anything succesful, she has tons of promo opportunities all over the past years but still let them go away, superbowl is one big example, the difference is that rihanna is likable ad her songs get more attention while beyonce's are not! plain and simple, the only thing bey has on her is big first week sales, that something Rih can catch out on the long run.
And the one million copies Anti sold y'all are joking about is the same one million your fave's husband have sold that y'all were praising to the heavens, and making him seem like the most succesful rapper of the music industry, so let not go there sweetheart.
Oh and the album is up to 175K and will for sure cross the 200K based on downloads alone, while Work is shaping its way to the top of the billboard hot, isn't that sweet??
The Hive was the one who first came into this thread which has nothing to do with Bey right? So why would the navy be coming for Bey? 
ICON!
