Hi Dale!

Have not really seen that.
What I have seen plenty is texts that are absolutely badly written, and are
ambiguous and allow multiple interpretations, because the text is NOT clear.

And interpretations that do not match with your or the authors interpretation
are not wrong.
They are only wrong if the interpretation cannot be deduced from the text
itself.
Otherwise the author simply did a bad job, and phrased the text in a way that
can be (validly!) interpreted in different ways.

What do we learn from it??
Simply ... texts should be written in a way that is unambiguous.

CU, Ricsi
