>Facebook has come clean on a slight error in how it presented video view time on its platform. A mismatch in how average video view time is calculated and how it is defined — resulting in that number being reportedly inflated by a trivial 60 to 80 percent, for a short period of two years. I don't understand - a "slight" error and 60-80% is "trivial" for a "short" period of two years? Is it just me or is this language excessively apologetic? Or is it meant to be ironic?
