Well nobrain if you want to be context sensitive. Yeah you can put can or possibly instead of will or it will or it’ll. I almost get the feeling that you think that by putting will or it will that AD is trying to convey some absolute truth that is actually some underhanded facade of what something really does.
Now obviously there is still quite a variance in results for the consumer product line but for the most part the instant line along with A314 definitely give a round-about result that everyone agrees with.
I’d think a smart fellow like yourself would realize that AD is still is a business and any information that put about the products on the main pages will sound Infomercial-like and I expect that cause the idea of a web page and what’s written on it is to “promote” products and “draw in” customers.
Noone wants to read a page about any product mone or otherwise that “can potentially” do something. They want to read IT CAN IT WILL. Obviously that invokes a hidden promise or hope that may disappoint but AD stands so much behind their products their willing to be politically incorrect at least according to you.
Yes, but that doesn’t give a free pass to replace CAN with WILL. Would you find it ethical for a business opportunity to say PAY US $1000 and you WILL double your money when in fact they mean CAN… I think, in fact, this is not even legal. Can means CAN and will means WILL.
