inaccurateness
Lack of correctness
The state or quality of being inaccurate.
Inaccurateness is a clumsier, less common alternative to inaccuracy: The inaccurateness of his measurements caused problems.
Both words describe lack of precision or correctness, but inaccuracy appears far more often in practice.
