<clear and convincing to some juries means the same as or nearly the same as beyond a reasonable doubt and to other juries a midpoint between preponderance of the evidence and the beyond a reasonable doubt standard.> All those "definitions" are a load of rubbish. In engineering measurement, there are "this many cubic metres" or "3.14159 inches long", or "24.34 rads" or whatever the unit of measurement is.
