Default Highway & traffic % on Database

Perhaps I'm being nit-picky, but I don't like how I only have 33, 67, or 100%. Why is it that instead of 25,50, 75, 100%?
I sometimes use the highway more than 33% but less than 67%, so I'd like it if there were a few more options on that.
Other than that the database is wonderful. I've found it very useful!!!
Thanks

Barbara,
It's called "Jason wasn't as smart about coding back then as he is now." I initially decided the values would be stored from 0 to 3. After people started adding tanks, I realized these "units" meant nothing. So, I converted them to percentages. I realize it's not really the best, but right now it's what we've got. Minor things like this will likely be changed this summer as I dig in and attempt to find every last dissatisfaction before I head to college.

Well thanks for the explination.
The database is really great, and I understand how much work goes into it. So I feel bad making such a nit-picky complaint. But I look forward to future upgrades to an already wonderful service.
