if you get the numbers in the wrong order the lock doesn't open. so it isn't a combination.

Would you prefer it be called a sequence lock?

Congress can probably do that for you.

That's assuming that there's actually such a thing as a true combination lock. In which case, it would be true. 🙂

you're picking one definition of the words used which doesn't happen to fit the product name.

you could probably call just about anything a misnomer.

I read this and just thought, "OMG, he wants it to be called a permutation lock." Is it more pathetic that you thought of that, or that I knew exactly what you meant by the above sentence?
