Counterpoint: No, there isn't

Words like ‘increase’, ‘decrease’ or ‘reduce’ imply that there was a manipulation or change over time
Phrases like ‘less than’ and ‘more than’ and words like ‘higher’ and 'lower’ imply a comparison
Sometimes you just mean 'high' or 'low'
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
