I see {milxe} more as {normutce}. {tolmutce} is very little.

What would that be? For that to make any sense, you would need a
scale going from bird to anti-bird, and {no'e cipni} would be
the midpoint. If {no'e cipni} makes sense, so does {to'e cipni}.

It could be added, but I doubt there would be agreement on how it
compares with {milxe}. We already disagree on {tolmutce}!
(I never said I was giving a complete scale anyway. I'm sure
we could come up with many more intermediate extents.)
