    Because Merrian-Webster’s website is designed to take the boiled-down definition and show the synonyms for that, so you are looking at the synonyms for “uncommon”; If you type in unique as the search term you’ll see what I mean as it boils down the definitions into “personal, unusual, only, and uncommon” and shows the synonyms for those.

      Are you really going to insist that when I said unusual I meant unique when I’m telling you I didn’t?

        Hi again Flying Squid, first I just wanted to apologize to you and admit I was wrong. I misread the 2023 earnings report where it stated fundraising was $4.4 million as revenue instead of an expense, so when you read it like I did originally it would mean they make 97% from dues and other means and 3% from fundraising (which is false). Which is why I tried to defend my position that there’s no value in taking that from the children and it’s just a cash grab. Second, no I was not trying to dictate what you meant, I was simply pointing out that the words can be used interchangeably after you cited my usage of the word unique when you said unusual.
