    Come on, translator, get it together. Fixed.

    It's an easy mistake if you're rushed and trying different approaches to the しか．．．〜ない construct. ("Only those with low IQs can" vs "Those with high IQs can't", plus one or two other phrasings, and they get tangled up in the process of typing them out.) I've tried a different phrasing.

    Umm, it ended with a にしか見えない, which meant "Can't be seen except to", so I tweaked the translation like so.

    Derf. You're right, my bad. The fact that it's opposite the usual "Emperor's New Clothes" joke plus the polarity switch in the translation made me overly hasty.
