I... suppose if '<' means 'less than' in typical mathematican notation, 'x' must mean 'wrong', to have the total meaning be something like 'less than wrong'...

But that sounds like it means "not even wrong"...

Yeah, it also just occurred to me, after I typed that comment, that wronger than wrong would also be a valid interpretation of this. Perhaps I ought let whoever made the change to interpret it, instead of offering my guesses. :-)

Good point. I guess '<' is meant to be read "less", rather than the standard "less than".

Yup... "less than wrong", absolutely.

I think it's meant as a rebus, rather than as a section.
