I don't have a problem with your question modified to use the word "value" where that is what you meant, and your mistake is not a valid excuse not to answer it. Your mistake can however lead to other problems as I mentioned when first pointing it out, and even if it doesn't lead you into making that sort of mistake, it can introduce or reinforce the confusion in people who read it.
