It’s about time all those math types learned to relax a bit. These numbers in these spreadsheets don’t need to be exact all the time. It’s really more about the overall flavor of the spreadsheet than how “right” any individual field is. Error bars are there for a reason people!

Just like the Xerox copier/scanners that helpfully kept scanned images small by reusing parts of the image elsewhere. Like, all these 6s on your scanned invoices can totally be replaced with 8s. There’s just a tiny degradation in the overall image, it shouldn’t be a problem!
Xerox should have just called it AI compression and people would have been throwing money at them.
Especially on blueprints, these small file sizes are important. Doesn’t matter if you replace these load bearing numbers with different ones, as long as the file is small

“Please calculate the totals to reflect a favourable result”
Sounds like what accountants do already
Accountants tally the numbers and hand you the totals. Twisting them is unethical and can lead to them losing their licenses.
Analysts manipulate the numbers to push a message. No ethics allowed.
Signed, an analyst raised by an accountant. Interacting with other analysts is infuriating.
5/4 times that’s true.
It’s all about whether your accounts give a vibe of truthiness. Auditors need to chill.
It’s just the vibe of the… thing
