8.0 to 9.2 is 16x, not 80x

A serious question, how does the number system work?

“8.0 to 9.2 is 16x, not 80x.”

It is 70-80x more energy release. Regardless of 16x vs 80x, which we can debate all day long, a 9.2 subduction quake in the water is far more deadlier than that the 8.0 strike-slip quake on land. There is no debating that.
