We cannot abide mistakes. We cannot abide simply knowing that a mistake exists.
Next time someone describes themselves as “detail-oriented” or “anal”, you can ask them to reference themselves against a new benchmark.

The examining body has issued a correction, changing “hops” to “barley”, even though it wouldn’t have affected candidates’ ability to correctly answer the question. Now that’s dedication.
