The definition is somewhat vague. The way I read the definition, it says
that +/-0 is essentially an obstention, ie -0 is "I don't like it,
but I don't care that much so do whatever you want." Anyway, I don't want
to start up this argument again, as it never gets us anywhere, so change
my vote on mod_speling to a -0.5 if that makes you happy. =-)
