Not a single person was confused by this, including me, a British dude sitting in the middle of London.

Now you got me confused. You are saying that no one was confused, not even you. Or you say that it was confusing not only for a single person, but for you too?
I'm happy to take the karma hit I'll get for this, but IMO this is emblematic of a large problem with HN, i.e. asinine bike-shedding. I address an unhelpful nitpicking comment and get a nitpicking reply. It's turtles all the way down.
The fact that two of your sibling comments are from people who were confused by this is just hilarious.
My apologies, I clearly underestimated how many pedants comment on HN.
