    No worries, that's a rounding error on the taxpayer funds they're playing with, so 🤷🏼‍♂️

    That's a rounding error on the audit errors.

    They're still audit errors, regardless of intent.

    The auditor: I can't account for these expenditures, into the "errors" basket they go.

    Or, these are errors as in outliers rather than errors as in mistakes.
