@ThatWouldBeTelling @KaiserKitty @Elliptica @IAMAL_PHARIUS @KingOfWhiteAmerica im not sure why they needed to break it into phi AND epsilon...why not just say the multiplier is 1 and call it a day...

but im guessing there's a strategic component to communicating it...where if an affected country is willing to cut its prices more (higher phi)...this makes it clear the tariff on them could be negotiated lower...
