Reply to comment by dreamchains in [NASA on Twitter] Newly-discovered asteroid 2023 DZ2 will pass Earth more than 100,000 miles (161,000 km) away–about half the distance to the Moon–making its close approach at 3:51 p.m. EDT (12:51 p.m. PDT) by ICumCoffee

The pedantry started with your comment. “Not quite” starts with a negation. There’s no need to negate something that was already true. You can clarify without negating. In fact, it’s much more fun that way. Share first, rather than using language that is ‘gatekeep-y’.

You clearly still don't know what "not quite" means, even though I literally just copy pasted it. How much more could I possibly spell it out?
