I used the term "effectively" doubled and not "exactly" doubled as there are some very small differences. For example, 150/300/25 becomes 300/600/75 vs. 300/600/50, and 800/1600/200 becomes 1500/3000/400 vs. 1600/3200/400. The differences are so small that it doesn't make sense to spend a lot of time splitting hairs.
The biggest differnce is that level 27 (equiv.) has been removed in 2007 (i.e. oddly there is no 50k/100k, assuming no typo). So yes, 2007 has one less level, which will only be felt after 99.5% of the field is eliminated. This SMALL difference is greater than the rounding differences at various levels.

Alan, the purpose of my post wasn't to nitpick your statement, but rather to back up what you had said about M's not being higher in 2007 than 2006.
