As far as I saw, you were getting mixed up on that. We never compare the parameter-vectors for being greater than/less than each other; they aren’t ordered.
(No, if some parameter started out with such values as 4+3i or 5, the ln transformation would not equate them. But multiplying both by e^0.01 would add 0.01 to both logarithms, regardless of previous units.)
I think at this point we should just ask @johnswentworth which one of us understood him correctly. As far as I see, we measure a distance between vectors, not between individual parameters, and that’s why this thing fails.
