Picture someone looking ahead and seeing the good version of what is coming. The same lean towards the bright side describes both a person's outlook and a plan's numbers — and when the numbers lean further than reality allows, English still uses this word, just with a knowing tone.
可以想成:一個人望向前方,看見的是事情好的那個版本。同樣這份「往亮的一邊傾」既可以形容人的心態,也可以形容一份計畫的數字;當數字傾得比現實允許的還多時,英文仍然用這個字,只是語氣裡多了一點「你想得太美了」。
