if you snatch a popular torrent that is fine but with dying torrents that is quite harmful

Dumb question, why?

If there's no one left to seed, the torrent dies. Seeding back at least 200% ensures the torrent stays healthy.

Sometimes you need to seed back more than 200% because the other two people might not be able to seed it back. I would generally not set a limit

True, but as a minimum you should be doing 200%.
Also in a ideal scenario that 200% would be spread out to a lot more people then just 2.

OP is showing 200% as their maximum. That's the whole point of this thread. 🤌🏼

I'm not the one reiterating the salient point of a very short thread. Might do well to read that to yourself instead, friendo. 🤗
