Okay. And as I said, I don’t really get hung up on number formatting if the meaning was clear.

If it’s not confusing, and it was understandable, why in hell do you care enough to argue about it even if it wasn’t the style you’d prefer?

There’s also “no such thing” as a decibel, since a bel is also not an official SI unit. Yet we all understood what you meant when you said kilodecibel (instead of the more formally proper “hectobel”) despite it not being an SI unit and being two si prefixes attached improperly.

I fail to see the meaningful distinction between one thousand-percent and one-thousand percent. I agree that they used a common abbreviation for a number. I just don’t actually care, which is what I said to the person incredulous that someone could not be upset.
