What is it about?
In this article we investigate the classical errors in the estimation of the b-value, inducing in a wrong interpretation of this parameter

Why is it important?
Analysis of the potential sources of bias that may lead to non-physical b-value variations that are too often ignored in seismological common practice
Perspectives
This paper aims to induce seismologists to be careful on the estimation of the b-value and, consequently, to its interpretation in physical terms, in order not to be fooled by non-significant estimations
