Lots of knit picking here. In plain English, confidence intervals are about your results being bogus. You flipped 100 coins, all of them came up heads, you conclude 100% of coin tosses come up heads. By chance, you got a very unlikely sample that differed substantially from the population. You could also conclude your A/B test is a success, when it was just randomly atypical.
