Well, yes. Of course it was in error because you massively overinflated 
what could reasonably be deduced from a single comment. That's not praise. 
Praise is measured. It's the measured part people feel praised about, 
because everyone knows measuring is hard, and suggests sincerity, whereas 
gushing is easy and normally has a self-serving motive.
