They're not synonymous, if that's what you mean. Nor are they
antonymous. One can be both, either, or neither. Or, like Jesse Helms,
all or none of the above, depending on who you talk to.

True. However, frequently what he was doing was getting the humorous
effect of obvious mismeasurement in cases where it didn't make a
difference, as with the number of glugs of wine. I can't and don't
believe he was accurate all the time when he did that, or else there
would be no point. I'll happily concede, though, that he could be
accurate when he wanted to be.
