I don't think many people would be surprised that any given "Top 10" list must contain, by definition, 10 or fewer such applications "that use RegexKitLite that don't acknowledge their use". However, it does not necessarily follow that there can only be 10 or fewer '"Top 10" applications that use RegexKitLite that don't acknowledge their use'. Just because all beaucoup fish are fish does not mean that all fish are beaucoup fish. Your conclusion would true if, and only if, there was a single "Top 10" list. It is assumed, without proving, that there is more than one "Top 10" list. There are an awful lot of "Top 10" applications that use RegexKitLite that don't acknowledge their use.
