At least with things like internet use, I can mostly just pretend it's truly unlimited. What I want to use when it's truly unlimited is typically within the actual limit.

But in this case, it clearly does not actually mean it. Oh, I have actually unlimited vacation at my Big Corporation job? I guess I'm never going in to work again! Except we can be pretty sure that 12 months of vacation each year is way beyond the secret limit.
