A quick definition of safe:

SAFE

Safe means that something is not dangerous or likely to cause harm. For example, driving at a safe speed means you are not going too fast and are less likely to get into an accident. Safe can also mean that something is unlikely to be proven wrong or changed.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: not exposed to danger; not causing danger. Unlikely to be overturned or proved wrong.

  • Wearing a seatbelt while driving is a safe practice.
  • Staying away from dangerous neighborhoods is a safe decision.
  • Investing in a diverse portfolio is a safe financial strategy.

The examples illustrate the first part of the definition, which means that something is not exposed to danger or does not cause danger. Wearing a seatbelt while driving reduces the risk of injury in case of an accident. Staying away from dangerous neighborhoods reduces the risk of being a victim of crime. Investing in a diverse portfolio reduces the risk of losing all your money in case one investment fails.

The second part of the definition means that something is unlikely to be overturned or proved wrong. For example, a scientific theory that has been tested and proven over time is considered safe because it is unlikely to be disproven. Similarly, a decision based on solid evidence and careful consideration is considered safe because it is unlikely to be proven wrong.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs
