Not unreasonable, but not ideal either.  I upgrade about 40% of 11 
counts and downgrade about 10% of twelve counts  - is that a 
probabilistic value of 11.6 or 11.9 (or c11.7)?

I don't think there is a perfect method of disclosure which will suit 
everyone but I'm pretty sure that even the most hard-bitten 
walrus/greenest novice will realise he might need to ask a question if 
the CC uses decimal points, or brackets, or %ages, or mini-graphs of 
probability curves.
