Hi Izkata. I'm a fellow pedant from the Secret Society of Hung-Up Pedants. Finding an interpretation that is obviously different than the intended interpretation and strenuously insisting that it is the only obvious interpretation is highly appreciated in our circles and you have thusly singled yourself out as a possible recruit. Please be on stand-by for our invitation to join our Society, and learn the secret handshake. Your demonstrable ability to clearly and crisply distinguish between ordinals and cardinals will be very useful to memorise the handshake, btw.
