Misleading? I wasn't mislead. It seems like you weren't mislead. The person who responded to you wasn't mislead. Was anyone mislead? Really, a single person? Or is language a mechanism to probabilistically encode information and not a formal system, even if it often approximates one? Go learn Lojban and leave everyone who actually wants to communicate be.

This conversation does not matter. You should both carry on for your own health.

Yeah with the benefit of 5 minutes hindsight it's hilarious that I got suckered in literally just because I felt a single word wasn't precisely accurate. I mean, "misleading" didn't mislead me in the slightest, the overall meaning was clearly that it's better to be correct than not, precisely the impetuous of my snark. He who is without sin, yada yada yada

Well at least you have the self awareness to recognize and make humor out of it. I'd call that a win.

Still a loss for the rest of us who got suckered into reading the last ten or so stupid comments but oh well...

I've been there too. All you need is a slow morning and too much caffeine.
