      That’s a contextual issue. It’s not often applied to a value but rather a feeling - that’s why I suggested “exorbitant”.

      Exuberant is also considered a positive attribute, so contextually it was confusing.

        Exorbitant meaning “eye-popping”, as in making your eyes pop out of their sockets, which is why it’s used in these contexts.
