I hate the number naming system. I have no idea why anyone would find it preferable to use them for literally any reason. Specificity and Sensitivity already almost mean the right things in common language already, they are perfect words for this. The only use for these is to confuse people so they don't realise you have no idea what you are talking about.
I think some people struggle to grasp that these are actually strict mathematical concepts. But personally, that makes me feel comfortable with them. It is a lot easier to get a math concept consitently right than some of the fuzzier concepts in epidemiology.
