Magnitude is a subjective measure of interest. Over time it should be adjusted up or down by the community. It is generally interpreted as follows...

0 You have the common genotype, for which nothing interesting is known.
0.1 You have the common genotype, but its interesting that this varies for others
1 Semi-plausible but not very exciting
(blank) No one has yet assigned a magnitude. Treated as a 1.
2 looks interesting enough to be worth reading
2.1 hmm, interesting
3 Probably worth your time
10 Really significant information!

Numbers bigger than 10 are allowed and expected in the future. Since User:Watson and User:Steven Pinker requested not to learn their APOE4 gs216 status that serves as useful a landmark in the scale. Several rare genotypes are higher magnitude. The genotypes with highest magnitude are
