This is a useless contribution to the discussion, maybe even negative... Why didn't you check it at least before sharing?


Why? Because it's wrong? If it were correct, wouldn't it be useful?


This is a bit like presenting someone with a raw egg on a plate and saying "ah, but if I had cooked it, might it not be a tasty omelet?" Correctness is the hard part!


More like a covered plate you're expected to eat without looking. "This may be an amazing omelet and you will have a great meal, or you may eat a raw egg, get salmonella, and be sick for a week. It's probably an omelet, but I'm not sure, so you'll probably be fine. Enjoy!"


Right, but are its labels of the state actually incorrect? I don't know well enough how to check.
