I exaggerated to make the point. I don't think it makes the question
useless.

That's not the point. No one would dispute that the M sign and the 20%
off in the example are both inaccurate. The question is, are they worth
caring about? If the actual return never reached 102.5%, then sure, we
have a problem.
On the other hand, if I get something more than what was advertised and
brought me in, it's not something I particularly care about (and I
consider myself pretty OCD). YMMV, I guess.
