Eagle Palm counts incorrect in PO

See the “The right way to wear a combination of palms” section in “The way Scouts earn Eagle Palms is about to change”, article, (scoutingmagazine.org), https://blog.scoutingmagazine.org/2017/07/10/changes-to-eagle-palms/, By Bryan Wendell, July 10, 2017, for a more complete table. Per that article:

Eagle Palms may be reported by the unit leader submitting an Advancement Report No. 34403, making the appropriate entry via Internet Advancement, or via Scoutbook once the option is available.

What palms needs to be purchased may be less than what is in the table because the Scout may already have some palms.

Here is my interpretation.

No. = Number, MBs = merit badges

No. of MBs beyond minimum Purchase
5 bronze palm
10 gold palm
15 silver palm
30 2nd silver palm
45 3rd silver palm
60 4th silver palm
75 5th silver palm
90 6th silver palm
105 7th silver palm

The IT programmer analysts may want to use to use a formula for the calculation of silver palms instead of a table to allow for future expansion in the number of merit badges.
