It's currently used to denote a value above the arithmetic mean of the upper and lower ends of a tier, but wouldn't it be better to use the geometric mean? Generally in vs battles we consider how many times more powerful a character is proportionally, so it'd make a lot more sense.
For instance, an SS+ character is at minimum 500,000,000,000x stronger than a baseline but less than 2x weaker than a Multi-SS character under the current system, but if we were to use the geometric mean an SS+ character would be 1,000,000x stronger than an SS character and 1,000,000x weaker than a Multi-SS character which makes a lot more sense to me.
