| Jun 24, 2022 at 12:09 | comment | added | whuber♦ | Because it's incorrect: prediction intervals are not confidence intervals. However, technical writers do use the term "confidence level" to describe the coverage. (I even quote an authority at stats.stackexchange.com/a/26704/919.) That might be why so many people are confused about the distinction. | |
