: Which man? Makes no sense.// The Asker was, I am sure, not simply looking for a subjective understanding, but an understanding based upon correct English usage. It is incorrect to use "a man" as an abstract term.

European Union classification of carcinogens
European Union
The European Union classification of carcinogens is contained in the Dangerous Substances Directive and the Dangerous Preparations Directive. It consists of three categories:
Category 1: Substances known to be carcinogenic to humans.
Category 2: Substances which should be regarded as if they are carcinogenic to humans.
Category 3: Substances which cause concern for humans, owing to possible carcinogenic effects but in respect of which the available information is not adequate for making a satisfactory assessment.
This assessment scheme is being phased out in favor of the GHS scheme (see above), to which it is very close in category definitions.

Discussion
Today there is some avoidance of using man to be mean human being because it seems to exclude or denigrate women.
das macht man > that makes man????
I have glossary and this is a sentence from it - well it makes no sense to write anything before and after as it is alphab.listed (even as sentences)
it is about exposures and adverse effects of chemicals
