so that's definitely misleading.
You've uncovered a grand conspiracy between outdoor gear marketing departments, Google, and an evil group of mediums channeling Noah Webster from beyond the grave. They have intentionally made the words "weatherproof" and "waterproof" similar in appearance to promote confusion among customers, make more money, increase global warming, and cause the extinction of an obscure species of monkeys found only in Borneo. Evil people, indeed.
