BS... In the example, we started with ZERO to 5 years of jail time... In the IT example, we are starting with 13" or 14" wheels... It's your presumption that get to start with ZERO diameter that is flawed... We start with what is specified...

Comparing this length measurement to your currency example, the minimum amount of money I could spend is zero, the maximum $100. Just as that item could cost me "up to $100" - which means within a range of $0 to $100 - I can use "up to 15 inch" diameter wheels - which means within a range of zero to 15 inches.
BS again... see above...

Your judgement is clouded by the base premise that there's a starting point. There isn't.
I'll make a note of that.... "Note to self: Spec line is no longer valid, according the IT.com as the numbers on the spec lines resembling 13's and 14's now are really ZEROs..."
[list]You figure it out...

My perception is just fine... no clouding here... I definately don't agree with you, but that doesn't mean I'm not seeing things as clearly as ever...
But do as you will...

"unproductive"... Yah, that about describes this...
