No but it does tell me you are another person who does not understand inferred.
The content of a hole does not change when its moved to indicated from inferred. Its content remains the same. The only difference between inferred and indicated is the spacing of the drill holes and, what you can do with the assigned holes.

So an inferred hole is not able to be smeared to the next hole if the next hole does not conform in distance to the rules within 43-101 but the content of that hole is unaffected.

So if you take the example where 1 is a hole and 0 is a"missing hole for a 43-101 distance an example would be thusly

1------------------------------------0-------------------------------1
1%----------------------------------0-------------------------------1%

Now, even though both holes are one percent in the example above you cannot smear them to the "0" because there is no hole. So you drill and in this example this is what you get

1------------------------------------1-------------------------------1
1%---------------------------------1%-------------------------------1%

Now you can smear 1% over the entire distance which raises your inferred resource total to a higher indicated resource number.

The same applies even if its the following.

1------------------------------------1-------------------------------1
1%---------------------------------,54%-------------------------------1%

So even though "inferred" is the term, each hole is "indicated" what is "inferred" prevents you smearing the content, thats all.
