Glad you quoted this. It shows what un unscientific body of blunderers
the IPCC is. It also shows that they themselves don't understand the
significance of quoting a 4-digit date for the disappearance of (even
one) glacier implies.

This is only because you don't understand the significance of the error.
And this is because you don't understand the scientific method. Tell me
then, how should they have stated the correct date?

Thought so. Try looking up accuracy and precision in scientific
measurement, then tell us how "scientific" the IPCC is.
