What dude was trying to get across with the apples is that there's A total integrity of 200% divided into two respective groups GREEN and RED. While we do not have access to RED it is still accounted for in calculations.

Normally the distribution would be 10% of column A and 10% of Column B. Where A+B= total integrity.

But DE has a restriction that, B i.e. RED will NEVER be touched.

As a consequence the cost of RED is deffered to GREEN to meet the overall cost of 10% of the system.

(A * 10%) + (B * 10%) = 10% Total Integrity

This means that each column would give 5%. But then that silly little restriction comes into play where you cant touch Column B oh noes.

To compensate, you take the difference of column B from column A. Now we met the restriction of not touching column B yay.

So the new equatino becomes (A * 10%) + (A * 10%) = 10% Total Integrity

This lets us hold true to our initial restriction AND meet the overall integrity cost to our system.

But wait, ararara?

10+10 = 20 O.O and so even though you only took 10% overall the cost to A i.e. RED apples = 20%

Math is math, code is code, everything and every formula cannot do the trick if the initial information is wrong. Speculation, guesses, and hearsay open up that can of errors.

Hopefully this cleared it up for you. watch more devstreams they cover all this for you...
