Probably just casual rounding of a quantity and its reciprocal, without realizing that 4% vs 5% is a large difference.

- neallindsay 4y agoMaybe it's actually 4.48%, which would be about 1 in 22, and they rounded in opposite directions.
- iso1631 4y agoIndeed, 4.5% would be 5% when rounded in decimal, but it's 1 in 22.222 in fractional, so 1 in 20 and 5% both are valid choices with normal rounding.
