[DEV Question] Why is this allowed?

[Gumbercules]

Whether you appreciate it or not, words have meanings and you should use the right ones if you want to communicate effectively and be understood.

You've also decided that math just isn't quite good enough to do this job, so something else is going to have to do it. Never mind the fact that the existing system works fine and produces successful parties (including the one in the OP) far FAR more often than it doesn't.

Guess i can get behind this position, since even in my example it was literally a 1 in 50 occurrence. Probably why SE hasn't changed it since it could potentially over-reach and affect alot more ppl than it helps.
