More Is Better Fallacy

It is sometimes said that if some is good, then more of the same is better. This leads to the SnowballEffect.

In practice this does not always work. "Some" amount may be near the peak of a fitness curve, whereas more produces a worse effect.

For example, some iron in the body is good, but too much iron is a poison.

Also true of WikiWord length -- this used to be IfSomeIsGoodMoreIsBetterFallacy.

[However, (according to American men) this does not apply to breasts on women. (C'mon -- you knew this had to come up.) Not all American men!]

I don't know, when they reach/sag below the waist...

You children! Such sophomoric humor! <Tsk, tsk.>
