I agree with the 'binary' here, but also add "not bracketed".

For me, I see:

Insignificant < 25% Not insignificant 25%-? Significant > ~75%

With:

Not Significant < Significant

But of course, that's almost certainly a colloquialism.

Probably, although sometimes these become terms of art, i.e. words or phrases with quite a specific meaning in a particular field. (Think of the people who hear 'significant' as '< 5% under null hypothesis', ironically not what Fisher intended)
