 S is infinite, instead of S, we use a representation of some approximation of S.  Because we want to be sure to account for all possibilities (and not miss errors), we use overapproximation of S.  ​ S is infinite, instead of S, we use a representation of some approximation of S.  Because we want to be sure to account for all possibilities (and not miss errors), we use overapproximation of S.  ​

 +and we call this "the best transformer"​.
  
-All else being same, the best transformer is better, because it gives as precise results as we can get with a given analysis domain. ​ But sometimes it can be more expensive so we use a weaker one.
