I wouldn't want to approach this too much like a math problem. Suffixes
aren't exactly like mathematical operators. A *loDHom* is a different
thing than a *loD,* not just a *loD* that's had the operation of
minorness performed on it.

You are definitely right, that's more accurate. I had the same
thing in mind as well. But then I thought like, hey, I already
said it's a BABY. No need to mention the {Hom}-part any more.

Suffixes aren't exactly like mathematical operators. A <b>loDHom</b>
is a different thing than a <b>loD,</b> not just a <b>loD</b>
that's had the operation of minorness performed on it.<br>
