I shall reveal all.

Dang - you dug a bit too deep into my inner meaning with that PSI thing :-)

It was a (rather bad, I'll admit) play on words and units where I wrote:

*** set the bar low ***

Bar, which I also a unit of pressure

PSI - the unit that metric peons, eh, people, aka "Europeans", look their nose down upon Americans because we use the more human friendly measurement system (aka US Customary Units). Pressure is Pounds per Square Inch. Yes, metric is wonderful for certain moments in life like when doing (most) science, but even then it falls apart in certain circumstances - for example, talk to an astronomer and you'll discover this quickly or an astronaut talking about their Kessel run.

But half the time if you're talking to a scientist,
they'll tell you
pressure units in PSI
and the other half of the time in Bar
and the other half of the time in Pascals.
