I wont comment about 'military intelligence'.
 
As for 'jumbo shrimp', well first, according to
http://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/invertebrates/crustacean/Shrim
p.shtml , shrimp can be up to 9 inches long, so why could you not call
one such as jumbo-size?
 
But assuming you meant 'shrimp' in the sense of 'small', there is a
fundamental difference. 'jumbo shrimp' sounds like a juxtaposition of
terms with opposite meanings.
 
'Almost identical' is no different than saying that 'A line is almost
straight'. If one means that in almost all aspects, two items are
identical, and difference only in one, why does not 'almost identical'
apply?
 
Anyway, I'll accept your wording as well.



	[DR] "almost identical" is a phrase up there with "jumbo shrimp"
and "military intelligence" Why don't we just say "The always_latch
construct is identical to the always_comb construct except that software
tools may perform additional checks and warn if the behavior in an
always_latch construct does not represent latched logic, whereas in an
always_comb construct, they may check and warn if the behavior does not
represent combinational logic."
	 
	Regards,
	Shalom
