I can understand when the meaning has been lost in translation, but how obtuse are the English-speaking people who create these ridiculously redundant statements?!
Some of them are put there because the companies (like the iron manufacturer) have been sued before when idiots use the product improperly. If they have the notice on the box, it'll render any more lawsuits for the same reason void.
But it's still stupid.
I thought Obtuse meant an angle between 90 and 180 degrees...
Obtuse can also mean thick or blaze.
So I gathered...I had heard it before, but I don't use it
