[Torg] Why 0-21? Or why not?

To be honest, I also have to admit that I didn't quite get the point of arguing about "quantitative" or wtf the problem is with having game mechanisms and difficulty numbers.
If someone could list all the issues a chart may have to answer before getting "torgable"..?
May I start to help..:
-Reconnection DN
-Miracles of faith, invocation
-Spell building
-...probably a lot more
But despite all the fascinating things I could read here, I'm a bit disappointed. No answers specifically about a ten entries chart. I'll infere that everybody agree with the fact that we don't really need much.
I mean : no bullshit, there no way someone see me use fractional numbers while GMing a game. And there is no need although for the whole statements made in the uncomplete charts of Torg (1.0 or R&E) to be incorporated in the new one.
If that was to be, the minimum number of entries for the new chart would be the highest about detailed ranks total number to be found in one of the four axioms charts.
However I slightly change my mind. A chart running from 1 to 13 might be much more better than a 0-10. Thus a cosm begins to be similar to an individual with charts going from 1 (no 0) to 13, that is, in a specific cosmverse, but not in the infiniverse of course. This could be usefull sometimes, like for invocations, to be allowed to compare an axiom level to a game stat directly like if it was a character (which it actually is in my opinion) !
My apologizes, but with all the time you use your brains cells on formulas, granularity, quantitative aspect, Moh Scale (LOL never heard about it, I'm not on hard science) and so on, you could have easlilly came up with new entries missing all the blanks of the old charts ! ;-)
