:: I understood that reasoning, but there are different "defaults" in common use. For example, the Tenney harmonic distance is also a kind of taxicab distance and is used in a wider reach. [[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 07:24, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
::: I suppose the article could at least mention that taxicab distance is just the same thing as the 1-norm, and that it's quite common in RTT to scale the elements of vectors before taking their norm (such as with Tenney harmonic distance AKA log-product complexity), which is what Dave and I call a prescaled norm. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 23:31, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
