Grammar
Set the pace & set the standard
Are there any cases in which the meaning "to set the pace" and "to set the standard" overlap?
If so, when?
Would you please give me a couple of examples in which the two phrases can be used interchangeably?
Thank you

teal lime Are there any cases in which the meaning "to set the pace" and "to set the standard" overlap? I'm not so old that I have already heard every sentence possible in English. So I've never heard this elusive overlapping case the existence of which you hypothesize.

- It's just that I don't know of anything like this.
