Yes, we're talking about the same thing. What you're saying is an
ancient theory which may have held true in 19th-Century Japan but is
far removed from reality nowadays.
So what _is_ reality nowadays? Your previous email did not make this
clear. Are Japanese pro grades now closer together than a third of a
stone, or farther apart?
