I do not think that we disagree on this. It would not be reasonable where there is clearly a lot of grey in the assessment, and I do not think a court in the land would allow us to say that someone was being negligent. That is not what negligence means. Negligence means not caring at all and just slamming down the wrong information or having information that you did not bother to put down. That is negligence. Getting something wrong on shades or ““It didn’t occur to me”” are not negligence and would not be construed as negligence in any court in the land. A lot of this is concern about things that the language does not support.
