    don’t say “very accurate”; say “exact”

    First line of this infographic is already deeply misleading. It’s the equivalent of:

    don’t say “very good”; say “perfect”

    It’s overly superlative compared to what it’s trying to replace. “Exact” is inherently “very accurate”, but “very accurate” is not inherently “exact”.
