In your case it is probably roundoff error in the display. The actual hits
was probably 3.99 or some such, and that rounds to 4.0 in the display. So
it looks like it should have triggered, but it was actually still a bit shy.
It is actually 'equal or greater', but with the actual numbers and not the
rounded display version.
