Because that's what the scale measures for in terms of and and as regards the intersection of genuinely genius-level talent sufficient to make up for acting like some man who mistook his @$$ for a hat.

Many authors would not rate even a fraction of a milliHarlan of consideration for their foibles. The scale is a harsh mistress, much like the moon, but without the rail gun of loving correction. Much as I'd occasionally like to drop meteors on people whom I think could really benefit from it.
