Yes? I didn't see any link in comment I replied to between 100% and 100deg besides it happening to be the same number - I already changed that to 1M, changing it to 50k no different either.
If the argument was saying there's something special about 100% being 100 quantity then.. no? I don't really know where to go from there, what I said still holds with a 100k target, but I'm not going to be able to give 'another' example where the 100 quantity is meaningful because it isn't for degrees either. It's the freezing point at 0 that makes it work better for centigrade than Fahrenheit, imo.
If your ”whatever” target instead was 50k, is the argument that going from 100k to 200k would be 400%?
