A nonsensical way to express the idea that it's easy to see what the right course of action was, when the dust has settled.
20/20 vision is 50th percentile, average. It's mediocre. It means you can see at 20 feet what the average, middle-of-the-line person can see at 20 feet. Hindsight (perfect deduction) is the opposite of that. It's flawless. Properly expressed, to make any sense and actually convey the intended meaning, it would be "Hindsight is 20/0".
Stop saying this nonsense bullshit.
