That's absurd. How did they not run afoul of false advertising laws? (Oh, that federalregister.gov link says "The RLDWA revised the definition of lead free.")

My layperson expectations:
• "low-X": < 1/3 is X.
• "trace amounts of X": <1% is X.
• "X-free": no reasonably detectable amount is X. Obviously there's some wiggle room for how sensitive the detectors are, but it should be less that "trace amounts," i.e. 0%.
This reminds me of "waterproof" which generally just means it can survive being splashed or rained on for a few minutes, but not submerged.
