Now the second wording *IS* technically correct, but come on, it's 24 words long whereas the original one was 3 -- and hopefully anybody reading the shorter phrase *would* have known anyway what was meant, without having to be pedantic about it :-)
Well you were talking pretty formal (and detailed) stuff, so IMHO it's good to have that exactly correct. Sure it's nicer to use small words most of the time :-) Segher
