I suppose so, that hadn't occurred to me.  However, could that not have
bad (or at least variable) side effects when combined with adaptive
scoring, and lots of other rules that are moving posts down into that
range?  I *want* stuff scored down there normally to get marked so it
can continue to be recognized by the adaptive mechanism.

Or in other words, your suggestion should work in isolation, but I don't
think it will function reliably in the presence of more complicated
scoring rules.
