Error in FAQ, avoiding credit or awarding credit?

(moderation:
The FAQ reads:
"I claimed 100 credits for my result but only got 90. Why?
Each machine that does work will claim a slightly different amount of credit. For fairness and uniformity, we have adopted the BOINC/SETI standard way to determine how much credit to _avoid_."
Are we really trying to "avoid" credit? Or was this perhaps supposed to read "award"?
