Unless you are aware of some ISO definition of a 'ballpark', it's all subjective. That is the point.

From a purely objective point of view, I assure you, if I have $50 in my account and try to spend $150, my bank will assert that there is a significant difference.

I'm sure there are people who feel $50 and $500 are in the same ballpark, too. I don't have the good fortune to play in those ballparks.
