<<So, following the logic, if you accept the widespread practice of subtracting cash from market cap to measure a stock's value, and if you recognize that you get the same information by computing a ratio rather than difference of these two quantities, and if you recognize that net
current assets is a better quantity than cash to measure the liquidation value of the company, then ... you will accept my use of net-net as the denominator in a ratio.

"if you recognize that you get the same information by computing a ratio rather than difference of these two quantities" - THATS THE LINK IN THE ARGUMENT I'M CHALLENGING. I THINK YOU'RE MAKING AN ILLOGICAL LEAP HERE.

JUST TO BE CLEAR. I THINK WE HAVE MUCH MORE IN COMMON THAN WE HAVE TO ARGUE ABOUT.
