It would be seen that the intensity of mixed-right-and-wrongbelief is represented only by the medium hardness of wood. It will have infinite degrees of hardness, but its hardness as a class remains milder than the hardness of a bone and intenser than the hardness or softness of a creeper. See chart below :
