I said that the limits don't effect autolearning, just scoring (activation). Whatever you think you wrote, what you actually wrote was: " to force at least some MINIMAL manual training, before auto-learning kicks in" There's no ambiguity there, the use of the word "force" implies that manual training is a prerequisite to auto-learning.
