I think it was a pun as in 'specious' means false and said mansion doesn't
exist and the situation described is speculative and not based on direct
experience.

But getting back to the technical issues, why do you think one vendor
decided they had to extend the specification to seven hops if four hops
covers even mega-mansions, (whether specious, spacious, speculative or
spherical?)
