I am used to treat 2 as being several but apparenlty English disagree ?
Two is somewhat a magic number since it is often treated as being
neither singular nor plural. Some language (e.g. archaic greek) has dual
for that.  In French, 2 is officialy plural, but I have to admit French
people side-step the question most of the time by just using the
numeral.

I never meant to say that the document was drafted to deceive, if that
was the point of Joey second footnote (so there were not several
footnotes after all ?). However, I assume the candidate did not contact
the Security team, yes.
