Yup, that’s what I thought. (I’m not sure that with the “apologia” spelling it even can mean “saying sorry”, but I was too lazy to check and of course for all I know you might have got it wrong, hence only p~=0.95. … I’ve now checked, and I think it can in principle mean “saying sorry” but I bet it basically never does. Because every path by which people come to know the word “apologia” goes back to Newman’s book where it’s very clear that the meaning is “self-justification” rather than “saying sorry”.)
I did (otherwise I would have spelt it “apology”).
