There are still multiple theories floating around regarding assigning random numbers to characters' strength in the One Power, whether Lanfear had an angreal implanted in her or trying to calculate power loss in links from those same randomly assigned numbers, so I'm not that concerned with how my little theory is perceived or whether my opinion of BS' understanding of the series is supported by others but to each their own.
"Those who think they have no time for bodily exercise will sooner or later have to find time for illness."
My Lanfear/Cyndane theory has been disproven.
