Very what
Bit convoluted but the gist of it is this:
as exciting as [thing], which is to say [very]
thing = very
As exciting as very
Very exciting
English is kind of scuffed in that the order of words only sounds correct or not based on how often you've heard it said that way before.
Ohhh
There's supposed to be a comma before "very", right?
