The the the the three prior funds for Venrock were all exactly four fifty over the course of a decade or that the the fund prior was even smaller. And there was a sense that these medium sized funds or or, you know, if you go with Goldilocks and the three bears, the just right size, it was big enough to support a seed or series a all the way through to the end to have the resources you need to to be, a fund in the big leagues, but not so big that, you know, a home run or or, you know, the winners can't really move the pile or you need too many of them or you need some massive, I guess, it would be white swan event to to really have a great outsized return. So we felt like four fifty, 500, that that's a number where your really big winners can really move move the whole fund. So why did we go up to six fifty?
