"Nothing's perfect of course but the 3-4/within 8% rule is an excellent guide for the trailer to follow."

Can you quantify the excellence of this guide and say more about the assumptions built into it? In this position the guideline fails badly saying nowhere close to a double with the size of the market losers being huge and the gammon losses not being accounted for seeming to be the culprits. These number of market loss sequences arguments have become prevalent but I suspect many don't understand the assumptions that are being made. For example huge market losers should of course be more important than small market losers but that is not explicitly accounted for. Are they considered some "typically sized" market losers somehow? You say that the gammons you lose are important at this 4a -2a score but is the 3-4 rule for a case with no gammon losses or some typical amount of gammon losses?
