Let's see if we can break HN nesting algo with this thread.
>> Many things having the potential to "rock" does not imply that everything "rocks" equally, or at all
That isn't what I am suggesting. I am saying that I do not care if people use the word "rocks" to describe an impossibly spherical marble rolling on an impossibly flat surface - equal across all space and time. Or, to describe, something that is uniquely better than all others. Use the term as you see fit. Use it to describe the value 4.532341 +/- 0.00001345 if you like.
