Nothing triggers a mathematician's fight-or-flight response quite like hearing decimal places butchered. It's like nails on a chalkboard for anyone who's spent more than five minutes in a STEM field. The number is 7.92 - that's "seven point nine two." Not "ninety-two" after the decimal. That's just mathematical blasphemy. Precision matters, people! Next thing you know, they'll be rounding π to 3 and claiming close enough is good enough for engineering. The horror.
