      Zombies are slow and brain dead. It's already easy to fool an idiot, but those guys don't even know how to think anymore. 500 super-idiots bum-rushing you unarmed is nothing compared to 500 probably strategically moving humans likely wielding at least some form of weapon.

      That's basically the same as 2,478 units of pollution or allowing 9 minutes and 20 seconds to pass.
      Note that the raw percentages don't add up because each increase is a percentage of the remaining progress to 100% evolution so 25%*4 isn't 100%, it's 68%( 1-(1-25%)^4 = 0.683,593,75, I did the maths when calculating what compares to what above so you've got comparable numbers.
