Yeah... I really should have just said "for readability".
That said, even with the changes for readability... I still couldn't quite parse what you said properly. You used a double negative in a way that didn't make sense in context.
Here's the version that made more sense in context, given in context:
[bq][bq]
>
> > Bonus points if a few men end up turned into mares in order to get a better gender ratio for equine social structures.[/bq]
> Who’s to say Hylians+__would+__ function any worse if there were more stallions than mares? <w<[/bq]
... And here's what an **exact words** reading of what you said parses as:
[bq]
> Hylians might function worse if there's more stallions than mares.[/
(For clarity, "Who's to say" and "Wouldn't" is effectively a double negative. The plain English translation once converted from a rhetorical q]
uestion to a statement replaces those two with "might".)
Le sigh... Too bad I didn't learn that criticising how someone said something is a bad idea BEFORE I replied.
