Why would you ask this rather than adding it to wine yourself to see what amount you found satisfying?

I believe there is a trade off between grippiness and hardness. So depending what kind of surfaces you need to walk on, buying boots with soles that resist wear more may have a downside.

What exactly is that last phrase supposed to modify? I find that syntax confusing. Is that ironic or intentional?

No, but I'd consider it for a large group of states. The US dividing into 2 countries is better than some other outcomes I can imagine.
