I think they meant "more than 24 hours" rather than "less". It makes more sense in context.

  It's still not right though. People will say at 9pm "I did it yesterday" about something they'd done the previous date at 6pm

    I think you switched around your sixes and nines.

      I don't think I mixed it up > No human uses “more that 24 hours” as the definition of “yesterday”. Computers, unfortunately, do. At 9pm on Oct 14, 6pm on Oct 13 was > 24 hours ago, and people would still call it "yesterday".

    I don't think they're saying it can't be more than 24 hours just that it can be less. Clearly it's confusingly worded so probably best if they just redo it.

      agreed completely - "yesterday" usually includes times both greater than and less than 24 hours ago. People usually just mean… some time in the date previous to now. Roughly.
