but independent vs rather than independent My edit was reverted because editor Fat Happy deemed it to be my analysis presumably because I used the word contrast to describe the following inconsistency Currently the page describes the system operating independently within the government but independent of it my bold which is a quote from the Philadelphia Bank However the Board of Governors of the system describe it as independent within the government rather than independent of government my bold If we must choose one definition then shouldn t it be that of the Board of Governors If not then shouldn t both definitions be given And if so how is it wrong to use the word contrast
