Why people think that "I could care less" = "I could not care less"?
Hello, In the mind, they are totally not same with each other. I show my idea of them and please any native speaker give your suggestions and commends. Thank you for your help.
1. ---It would be possible for me to care less than I already do---that is , I care somewhat.
2. --It would be impossible for me to care any less about this than I already do- that is, that I don't care at all.
another instance: ---It would be impossible for me to agree any more about this than I already do-that is, that I completely agree.

Hi, In my opinion. it is simply this. Some people either don't think about what they are saying or don't really care about careful language.
