Okay I had a paper accepted with major revisions. In the original MS I use "!" to mean "not" - like, P(A|!B) to mean the probability of A given not B. We debated "¬" but my boss suggested it was too obscure.

... this reviewer wants me to change it to a superscript c, as in P(A|B^c) to mean the probability of A given the complement of B. It's FINE, just really jargony and this is intended to be for a public health audience and I'm grumpy.

@Maenad as a statistician, I'm like, WOT.

FFS. ! or ¬ is fine, ^c is also okay but that's way nitpicky

@gzt RIGHT? I try to write equations so that it takes minimal work to translate them into english so this level of nitpick just drives me nuts.
