Of course it is. My point is that this applies as a generality,
not specifically to CISSP or MCSE or whatever. You have to make
assumptions
about 'right' and 'wrong' content to mark an exam, and that includes
assumptions about terminology and definitions. Obviously, different
organizations can use variant terminology. Indeed, different
people teaching the same knowledge base may do the same thing
wherever there's scope for divergence.
