L'épithète «contrôlée» peut apparaître à certains lecteurs comme du «franglais». Bien qu'ici ce ne soit pas un reproche très justifié (le mode opératoire consiste, en effet, à utiliser des points de canevas, issus de la triangulation, qui servent aussi bien à obtenir un meilleur résultat - donc, dans le sens du mot anglais «control» qu'à en vérifier la qualité - cela dans le sens du mot français «contrôle»), on aurait pu préférer «mosaïque compensée» ou encore «mosaïque ajustée». 4, record 1, French, - mosa%C3%AFque%20contr%C3%B4l%C3%A9e
