If "basic straight cut" and "how good" it is isn't properly defined, there is no possibility to claim "better" or "no better than". You seem to be attempting a quantitative description of the (inherently?) qualitative experience of a bbs-creating stroke of a straight razor?
The term straight cut has been defined twice - once in the beginning of the prior thread, and once again in the beginning of this thread. The word basic is being used as an adjective indicating that the straight cut is not advanced. I feel the term “basic straight cut” should be reasonably clear to anyone who read either post. If you read the post and still do not know what I mean by straight cut, alas, I have done a poor job indeed.
