The coordinator describes two shipping options to a customer. Air express is pricier but guarantees the shipment will arrive the next day. It’s cheaper to ship by ground carrier, but there’s a chance it could arrive a day later. The customer assumes this means that there’s no chance that the shipment will arrive tomorrow if it’s shipped by a ground carrier.

The customer interprets the fact that a ground-carried shipment could possibly be late as though it means it will definitely be late.

Neither speaker mentions reliability, only the time it will take for a shipment to arrive.

The coordinator explicitly says this, so this wouldn’t be a misinterpretation.

The coordinator says that a ground carrier is cheaper, so this wouldn’t be a misinterpretation.

This describes what the customer misunderstands. According to the coordinator, a ground-carried shipment could arrive tomorrow or the day after, but the customer assumes this means that it would definitely arrive the day after.

The customer only chooses between two options, so there’s no indication that he’s concerned with any rule about shipping costs in general.
