It was correct to point me out on my mistake in essence, but still misunderstood my bracketed "(alongside the SI-standardized KiB)" sentence.
Sure, it wasn't a grammar mistake as such, more like a logical one, but it still shouldn't make it. I had more than one such issues already with it, this one was most pronounced.
What it interesting, though, is the number of corporate apologists my comment brought in. It's like it doesn't matter how many times OpenAI and Anthropic have botched some of the models while keeping the branding, some people would still die on that apologist hill.
