That formula is only valid for pass grades, not fail grades. From the SM 
website:

6. If the quality response was lower than 3 then start repetitions for the 
item from the beginning without changing the E-Factor (i.e. use intervals 
I(1), I(2) etc. as if the item was memorized anew).

But I agree that it's confusingly written.

For grades 2 and 3.

Because of lack of space, I abbreviated repetitions as reps. In Stats, reps 
currently is learning reps + review reps, but I agree it's inconsistent with 
the browser, so I've split this up by listing learning reps and review reps 
separately in the statistics page too.

Scheduled interval is next rep - last rep. This indeed probably does not add 
too much, so I've removed this from the statistics page.

Thanks for spotting this!
