Keep counting. It's not a matter of "better"; they're always just going to
be different. A painting isn't better than an etching; bronze isn't better
than marble; a sonata isn't better than a symphony; chocolate isn't better
than... well, maybe it is. I'm not into rankings here: I'm discovering
something new and different, and in time I may even prefer it to my old
favorites. Even if I do, that won't make it "better."
