Eh, yes, because this is not an astronomy forum, there may be plenty of people who don't have a good idea of what "wide angle" means in that context. So IMNSHO

Eh, yes, because this is not an astronomy forum, there may be plenty of people who don't have a good idea of what "wide angle" means in that context. So IMNSHO a clarification was entirely appropriate, and thinking otherwise is rather arrogant. I didn't mean that "wide angle" would mean something like a 24mm camera lens, but more that it's much more narrow than even long telephoto focal lengths like 200mm or 400mm or even 600mm! Especially given that this is a survey mission whose purpose is to image large parts of the sky, it could be entirely plausible to a layman that its angle of view were much wider than 0.7 degrees!
