Imagine using an e-commerce site like Wayfair to find the perfect sofa for your living room, only to discover when it arrives that the six-foot length in the description actually measures closer to seven feet. Now you are debating if it's fine that it overlaps the carpet (your partner is shaking their head) or if you should arrange a return and start your sofa search all over.
