Continuing with this metaphor, in this situation you're not the
pilot making the judgement, you're the aerospace engineer
deciding that the speedometer in the plane can be off by several
hundred m/s and it's no big deal.
Yes, every measurement in the real world has a margin of error.
But, since we're dealing with computers this is one of the rare
situations where a perfect number can actually be obtained and
presented to the user.

The right one is the actual speed of the plane and the wrong one
is every other number.
