Yes. One would want to avoid false positives for the accurate evaluation of one's vocabulary.

Apart from the humanitarian catastrophe, does anyone else feel vexed, at the enormous resources and man-hours lost because of the bombing campaigns in conflicts? One could argue, that efforts towards achieving inter-national harmony is also vital in reducing humanity's carbon footprint.

I have a family member with just one name, officially. We usually don't use surnames in our community.

He has had problems registering his bike in India, with his name.

And in chapter 2:

>Now if, for such a purpose, we regard 1/1,000,000 (or one millionth) as a small quantity, then 1/1,000,000 of 1/1,000,000, that is 1/1,000,000,000,000 (or one billionth) ..

1/1,000,000,000,000 is actually one trillionth

In chapter 2:

> Let us think of x as a quantity that can grow by a small amount so as to become x+dx, where dx is the small increment added by growth. The square of this is x2+2x⋅dx+(dx)^2. The second term is not negligible because it is a first-order quantity; while the third term is of the second order of smallness, being a bit of, a bit of x^2.

It seems to me that the third term is actually a bit of a bit of x, rather than of x^2.

It will put strong pressure to align the law with implementation. If the implementation treads into injustice, it (the law) is explicitly designed to be against those who can shrug it off, rather than drown.
