@user22, nope.

Obviously it is artificial, but that's not what they're asking. They're asking why it's misleading. It's misleading because bats don't go through all that effort to get the same results, so it exaggerates the differences between humans and bats sensing.

10/10 are the november 2010 ones. I don't think they'll be the same as ours though.

@Maxyend: okay, but how does that exaggerate the difference? Sure, there is a difference between their sensing, but there's nothing to suggest it exaggerating?

You mean the answers I didn't put in my list? Well.. There was something about evaluation, and there was one which had 'state' - 'form' and there was a SC with transport or something.

The question was "why is it misleading?" It is misleading because it exaggerates the differences between humans and bats. It isn't misleading because it's artificial, that doesn't even make sense.
