small != negligible. <grin>

The word "noticable" does not imply any particular magnitude of event.
It means only that <something> can be observed.

There is no canon technical usage.  In layman's use, "noticable" often
*does* imply that an effect is small, and that one might not see it if
not looking specifically for it.


Unfortunately, English is a slippery language.  Perhaps technical
documents should be written in Sumerian.

YMMV,
