I see. I was confused because e.g. in a fight this certainly doesn’t seem true. If your tank’s plating is suddenly 2^10 times stronger, that’s a huge deal and requires 2^10 times stronger offense. Realistically, of course, it would take less as you’d invest in cheaper ways of disabling the tank than increasing firepower. But probably not logarithmically fewer!

Ah, yes, definitely doesn’t apply in that situation in full generality! :) Thanks for engaging!
