Suppose I fired a rocket at an airplane. If I "nearly missed" it, didn't I hit it?

Makes sense to me! I think if you missed it, you missed it. If you 'nearly' missed, you hit. Unless the person meant to say they came "VERY" close. In other words, a 'near miss' - and they don't know the proper usage of the word.

Yes, you hit it but you almost missed it meaning you hit it on the very edge or something

Yes you hit it. But it was a close call.

Near misses only count in horseshoes and hand gernades...

missed by a fraction as opposed to missed by a mile.
