This article seems to confuse the concept of precision somewhat. Per Michael Hicks’ post on the same topic [1], precision is generally approaching soundness whereas recall or sensitivity is approaching completeness. Admittedly, I’ve also seen the term precision used far more loosely, including to describe approximate completeness (e.g. sound and precise).
