The acceptance rate could be as low as 20% and as high as 28% and it would still be essentially 1/4th of the class. That’s a horrible criteria, because it’s very rare that a freshman class is exactly 1/4th of the total undergrad size - we had issues with an overly large year for incoming froshies 2, maybe 3 years ago. I don’t need to present contrary evidence, simply point out the fact that your “proof” is iffy at best. You’re right that it’s pointless for me to argue, because you don’t seem to be receptive to any logic whatsoever. Every time I refute one of your premises you simply conjure another one.

It doesn’t really affect me that you’re being stubborn. When you get duped by language precisely like this when it actually matters, you’ll realize that the real world and real use of language doesn’t jive with your fantastical “rules of english”.
