ah, only now i understand that in your view your edit distance is the same as comparing 2 strings.
I should have realized that sooner, sorry, but that is the exact thing where you lost me every time.
In my view the comparison of two strings is completely different:
two strings share common base if, and only if, there is at least 1 letter the same.
If two strings have more letters in common that is better and if these letters appear on the same position, they even have a higher match.
I could elaborate but that is beside the point, now that i understand your method i see where we deviate completely.
Thank you for your time in explanation Torsten.
