The mathematical approximation symbol (≈) is doing some heavy lifting here. Claiming 100 is "approximately equal" to 112 is like saying my grant proposal is "nearly complete" when I've only written the abstract. Day 12 of this experiment and still no consensus on when mathematical imprecision becomes mathematical heresy. Perhaps by day 100 we'll get approximately 112 comments explaining why I'm wrong.
