Assumption:Mami is competent (being a veteran and this thread as sources).
Really its us English speakers that are weird.
How recently do you think? She got adopted by and had fun with Mami, got another friend and then had her injury at least 4 months ago (iirc? Some time, at least, with the bones having bleached).
Hence the next segment. How much worse do you think that is going to make efficiency?
Actually, given the size of the city, with all the skyscrapers and such, I'm inclined to believe that the city population is much higher than this. Possibly upwards of a million (the size of Dallas), though maybe only half that. That makes the sustainability of ~10 MGs much more believable.
Well, yeah, pretty much. Did we have word-of-Kyuubey on the actual average, or was that word-of-Mami? Most MGs wouldn't even notice all the short-lived contractees, and thus not count them in their estimates. Heck, even Kyuubey might not count them if they witch out before completing a successful witch hunt, based on technicalities.
Mami's judgement in that matter could be suspect, considering she was damned desperate to not be alone (and Kyubey's selective feeding of info didn't help either).
It is really confusing to grab some formulas from some US site and then get errors. Then I notice the dots....
Hiroko, not Masami. Wrong girl.
So, how does this support your point that Mitakihara can support 10 girls? Because it's not like she is openly inviting Kyouko and Yuma to come live with her after she got Madoka and Sayaka to contract. Under normal circumstances, even if Madoka and Sayaka were to contract, there would still only be four girls in Mitakihara, five if you count Kyouko. So where the hell are you pulling the 10 meguca figure from?
There we go.
You're missing the point. Kasamino is essentially it's own city. It doesn't make sense to include megucas from Kasamino into "how many megucas can Mitakihara support" calculations. The same goes for western Mitakihara, which is a) non-canon, and b) the megucas in there don't last long without our interference, so they shouldn't be included either.
Nothing to apologize for.
I think we're still debating on a specific plan of action, anyway.
Last longer how? They were both going to die/Witch if we hadn't intervened. Sendai would have bailed to keep Rin from getting lichbombed.

More seriously, while they might have less of an explicit reaction, "your soul's been ripped out of your body" is not exactly pleasant news, and neither is the association with "the guy who gave you your powers? Yeah, he's kind of a dick and working to screw you over."
Deals with the devil.
When they say they don't understand, I suppose it's really closer to "I can't empathize with your reasoning". In reality, Kyubey is a master manipulator, and that kind of skill requires a deep understanding of how humans think. He understands people just fine; he just doesn't empathize with them.
