English is not my primary language gentlemen.
Mr. Cavo,
I don’t understand why the USCG always seems to use “Insure” in hundreds of exam questions when they surely mean “Ensure”

Short answer: because NMC has 4 people to manage over 25,000 questions for deck and engine exams, prepare the tests, and respond to all question protests on exams at the RECs. They have more important stuff to do. This one is not likely to confuse anyone or make someone who knows the information the question seeks to elicit choose a wrong answer, so it’s pretty low on the “to do” list.
This notwithstanding, in many contexts the words are synonyms:

The web site you cited is for lawyers. Would you prefer the questions were written by lawyers? (I have experience with that…) Or maybe someone whose language is not English?
Very good point. I suppose things could be worse all things considered.
