You're right on the math front, what I'm saying is that the exporting company/country isnt going to take a loss to sell their goods.
The question is "How do they think it works?"
I agree. I was just mentioning that what they think not only didn't make sense but rather becomes mathematically impossible in some cases unless the countries are taking huge losses.
