Wouldn't it be more intuitive/easier to remember if the backwards progression
went like:

        Superb: Sc, Sc, H, H, VH, VH, In, ND
        Great:  Sc, Sc, H, H, VH,     In, ND    [remove a VH]
        Good:   Sc, Sc, H,    VH,     In, ND    [remove an H]
        Fair:   Sc,     H,    VH,     In, ND    [remove a Sc]

This makes each level going down one less duplicate level than the one
after it.

(Am I making sense?)
