>Tenobrus corrected me on two accounts: 1/ UK vs. worldwide 2/ The exact figures I disagree. It looks like one simple correction to me, and isn't meant to be an excessively precise number. And you keep acting like his number is wrong. It's not. It's right next to the number you intended. You're being picky and pedantic because someone corrected you, and it's ill-becoming. |

> By "3 million, in the UK" do you actually mean "2.5 million, worldwide"?
Correction #2:
> Tabacco is also only 5 million worldwide.
Note the use of the word 'also'. It means in addition to.
> It's right next to the number you intended.
Why bring it up, if the numbers are right next to each other? Who's being pedantic?
> And you keep acting like his number is wrong.
His numbers are wrong, if the point being my numbers were wrong. If he knew about both sets of figures, would he have still quoted 2.5/5 million? No!
I've not tried to make the figures out to be larger than they are. I made a mistake with where they apply.
Just because I didn't link to a set of figures (can't link to everything), doesn't mean they're not correct.
People are acting like I pulled the numbers out of my ass. And apparently I'm prone to hyperbole (see nagrom's comment).
> Tabacco is also only 5 million worldwide.
The dude can't spell 'tobacco'. That's nitpicking!
