'Ultimate surprise': How an Israeli raid freed 4 hostages and killed scores of Palestinians in Gaza - SLRPNK

Literally hundreds of civilians killed to rescue 4 hostages. I don’t know what happened but I can guarantee we will be hearing more about it.
I don’t see a problem with the title. That’s literally what happened. It makes no judgments.
Why are we still using the word “scores”

Because “dozens” is less than “scores?”

12 < 20.

What would be better?

Maybe hundreds?

Scores is such an 1800s word. It’s simply not used in today’s vernacular, and I’m not sure why you’re defending it.

I wasn’t defending anything. I literally asked what would be better.

Apparently asking what would be better was bad.
