There's an upward effect or the spatial degrees of freedom. It's going up. It's having a positive effect, increasing the performance coefficient. Then it flattens out. What I mean by adding more does very much, much less. It has lesser of an effect. That's like a threshold effect. There's a certain point you reach where manipulating the constraint anymore is not going to have an effect, right? So that's a nonlinear, right? It's not a straight line.
