but if that's the case there's then meta and image aspects that affect the ev of our range later, and we can't calculate that.

my understanding of this concept is that when in scenarios where balancing is best, balancing is best and we needn't know why to exploit it.
Yeah you're right. There's a bigger picture to this concept and it's that with every action you have a quest to find the most optimal range balance.
