Seems like an awfully small percentage though...
If only it was a higher percentage...
1% seems like a huge number here.
I think 20% is being generous… more like 2%.
This is not such a high percentage.
nitpick: It's a loooooooooot less than 1%
That 1% won't invalidate the remaining 99%.
It's much more than 1% though.
10% doesn't seem much. I was expecting it to be worse
Sounds like you’re counting on being in the 10%.
