Usage

Exceptionable means ‘open to objection’ and is usually found in negative contexts: there was nothing exceptionable in the evidence. It is sometimes confused with the much more common exceptional, meaning ‘unusual, outstanding.’ Their opposites, unexceptionable (‘unobjectionable, beyond criticism’) and unexceptional (‘ordinary’), are also sometimes confused. See also unexceptionable
