Zero is an impractical goal. I would like zero cars on the road. Zero litter. Zero CO2 emission. Zero idiots on the internet.

Sadly we both live in the real world. "A small fraction of the recommended limit" is perfectly acceptable.

Is 8% a small fraction? I don't think it is... sure it's not 80%, but it's definitely not 0.08% either.
I am unlikely to use a black plastic spatula more than 12.5 times more often, daily, for enough days in a row for this to really be a risk I need to worry about. Having said that, the next time I need to buy a spatula I'll probably buy one made of something else.
