i can't not notice this stuff

Here's a malapropism that made me chortle all day yesterday:

"…in other words, the [object:] is [a thing:], as succinct from [that other thing:]"1

Succinct? SUCCINCT?

OH, MR ATTORNEY. YOU MEAN DISTINCT.

Now, I'll grant you, there's a passing aural resemblance on account of that -inct suffix business, but I don't care to admit that as a valid excuse for gettin' it wrong. Not when we can safely assume that the author of the sentence in question passed not only primary and secondary education levels...
