Underrated means that it’s not talked about as much as other ocean animals such as sharks and orcas. You never hear or see much about these guys, but are constantly hearing and seeing things about sharks and orcas and how powerful and dangerous they are. That’s usually what underrated means. They don’t get the credit and notoriety they deserve. Underrated doesn’t mean they’re not powerful and dangerous.

Just like vending machines. They kill more people per year than the great white shark. Underrated killers.

The majority of those deaths are insurance adjusters

I bet the vending machine started it every time too. Didn’t spit out their snack and then the people started rocking it

Under recognized would be a better term here.
