>>Yes, but if they trust things farther than the limits, that is worse.<<

I was kind of figuring that a lot of people would go for the thing marketed as "earthquake-proof" (thereby expecting more than it can reasonably provide), but turn their noses up at the more honestly-rated "rated for up to X-magnitude" items.

A lot of people are so used to being sold sizzling unicorn steak, that they might still prefer it over a nice cut of regular old beef.

>>"Earthquake-resistant" is a better term. "Seismic safety features" is another option.<<

I approve of these terms.
