B says that the word "revaluation" has been used by the media and even sources in Iraq.  I agree, it has.  I even posted about this a few weeks ago in "The Ambiguity of Revaluation".  Sometimes people in the media say "devalue" when they mean "depreciate".  Sometimes people say "exchange rate" when they mean "value".  Sometimes people use the word "revalue" when they're describing a redenomination.  You can't expect everybody to be up to speed on the terminology like economists are.  That's why you have to see what they're describing, and these articles are always describing a lop when they refer to deleting the zeros and issuing a new currency at a ratio of 1000 old for 1 new dinar even if they use the word "revalue".  Oddly enough B then proceeds to read one of these very articles about "cutting the zeros" and "redenomination" when discussing the time frame.

    North Korea revalues and replaces currency

    These are all lops.
    I could go on and on but I hope you get the point. Go to a search engine. Type in the name of any country that lopped along with revalue, currency, and zeros.
    Ex. “Turkey revalue currency zeros”
    EVERY country that lopped will have articles that used the term “Revalue” do describe it.
