OK, I'm with Zynep AND.. if that was a tracer round, the victim would not be alive to tell about it. Bad terminology hurts credibility and can lead fence-sitters to go the wrong way.
Thank you so much for flagging this. It's now been corrected. It was completely my mistake, I just put the link as a placeholder and I thought, okay, I'll update it when she finds out what hit her in the eye. Then forgot. Doesn't change anything material but yes, details matter.
