Heh.. Google's search/dictionary feature -- define:bfd -- can help you out with that one.

To say "my ER is X" really means "my ER is X, as analyzed by bot Y, with analysis parameters Z, with/without selective rollouts with parameters Q of some possible errors." That's all. Not meaningless, but not the be all and end all, either. Good to remember.
