Interesting
So a 100% error (1e2) would then be 40.4GHz and not 80GHz
Sounds like some new math the cost of living department came up with.

One should of course be aware that the number notation used is no longer
considered correct.
Also even after correcting for the non standard notation the last set of
numbers is incorrect:
eg
40.000 000 003 GHz is equivalent to an error of +7.5 parts in 1E11 not
7.5 parts in 1E-11.
