I’m hardly missing the point. It isn’t impressive to have it be exactly 75%, not more or less, so the fact that it can’t always be that is irrelevant. His point isn’t that that particular exact number matters, it’s that the number eventually becomes very small. But since the number being very small compared to what it should be does not prevent it from being made smaller by the same ratio, his point is meaningless. It isn’t impressive to fulfill an obvious bias toward updating in a certain direction.
