C2. The value of a reply is in inverse proportion to the factorial of the depth of indenting.

[edit]

Factorial? Massive exaggeration I think.

I suggest instead:

C2. The value of a reply is in inverse proportion to the factorial of the depth of indenting.

I think I have seen merit or comments and meaningful agreement at depths of 5-8 indentations Downweighting these posts by factors of 120 - 40320 is quite extreme. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 03:46, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
