Slamming the brakes on the highway because either map data is incorrect, it misread a sign, or GNSS is misplacing the car is not a drawback, it's a massive fucking safety hazard.
A massive safety hazard is a clear drawback...
No a drawback would be a minor nuisance. You can live with a drawback. That would not be a minor nuisance and definitely not something you could live with.
You are arguing semantics and aren't even right about it. A drawback can be minor or major. We are in agreement but your being silly about the words I use even though they are completely valid. You might want a synonym that's harsher but that doesn't make the use of the word wrong.
I'm basically saying it's a problem and you are going "no fool, it's a really really big problem", like no shit, that's what I said. I even added the word clear to show that's it's not a small drawback but a major one.
