    You’re very right, though for me the abiguity comes from not being confident the person using the thing understands.

    I think you already get this, but “Applications are 150% of normal” means you add 50% and “applications are up 150%” means you add 1.5x the original. There’s really no room for interpretation it’s just that errors happen anyway.
