I always wonder seeing this old chestnut, what's the difference between "not that bad" and "not a big deal"
I take it to mean the distinction between downplaying how much of the bad thing happened (in this case how many people were raped) and how terrible of a problem that is (in this case how old they were)
yeah that sounds reasonable i guess
