    And also the people making giving you points a massive moral compromise that makes my stomach turn isnt at all to blame.

      “Outright” is not decorative. Words… mean things. Al Gore won the election, technically. But the margin was so slim that there was a recount. There would not be a recount, if he had won the election… unambiguously.
