In the wake of the financial crisis of 2007-09 and ensuing recession, it allowed inflation temporarily to overshoot the target rather than choke off recovery.

To do this, it adjusts interest rates to either boost or dampen activity in the economy if inflation threatens to undershoot or overshoot the target.

I don't deny that inflation overshot the target for many years.

In all of them, inflation had overshot the target.

These were to provide a means of preventing the pilot from overshooting his target during an intercept.
