This isn't my field but I would guess each situation can be different foir valuations. "Apparent" is a subjective term so maybe they are valued piece by piece. Obviously, a definite match is way better....but how can you calculate the nuances with reference to a standard percent increase.
In cards, qualifiers are generally a 2 grade hickey...
