“Perfect”

Who started this? Who came up with "perfect" as the go-to reply in finance. It honestly annoys me. I could send the simplest shi and they'll reply with "perfect", then they'll send comments. So clearly it wasn't "perfect" Feel like this is an industry wide phenomenon. I refuse, my go-to reply will be "great". I will not fall to corporate lingo. What is so perfect about replying with "perfect"?
