I understood as that being exactly the point of the GP, rather than contrary. Because of the 'most' referring to the 24 hrs, not amount of reboots.

But I guess this is the point where my lack of English skill comes into play.



...I've just realised that I got the < and >= backwards while trying to explain that they were backwards. facepalm

> ... would imply reboots_per_day > 1 is bad and reboots_per_day <= 1 is good;

is what I meant to say!

But now I've taken a look at your phrasing ... I think I read your post as 'at most once every 24 hours', not 'at most every 24 hours' which is actually pretty ambiguous, and not as clear-cut as I was trying to say.


Yeah, my writing was quite ambiguous as well. I shouldve written out the full sentences.
