And "solidly" means "sufficient for an illegal version". Nobody in the eBookz scene expects a copy without errors, though even there the self-imposed standard is relatively high, at least among the active German scene.
Fair enough; my standard of proof-reading (for the things that are important to me, like my Dickens novels) is "every comma in the right place" .
