that's like arguing about the proper use of the word "decimate." but I don't think the above commenter was referring to this article, they were either referring to some other article about CRT or about the publication as a whole

My reading of the article is that there are "scores of dealers" in the entire Tenderloin, not just on that one street.

“Scores” is also used as a rhetorical device to mean “too many” (in fact, I doubt more than 10% of people can define “score” as 20). “Few”, meaning “more than a couple” often implies that there isnt enough of something to matter. Id say that -given that turf violence is a thing - even a couple (two), of competing drug dealers are too many in “tiny dead-end street”.

Human minds are not compilers, we’re capable of nuance. Being as pedantic as when you're programming is counter productive in human conversation.

Sorry, is that GM link supposed to be “tenderloin”? Im not from SF, so I dont know
