There is only one maximum (generally); everything else is less...
i've learned to understand a lot in bucking wood, about issuing force to deal with present forces. In-tree this is rigging etc.; but all the same, loading your effort into best/easiest strategy for success against the odds. After all, trees are the largest life my lil'butt can walk up to pick on! JP's just next in line!
In any wedging, the deeper the face, the less leverage the wedge has; in bucking there is no face, so pure maximum leverage can be worked on the outer perimeter. Direction of effort (or loading) is always so important. Direction is the first part of force, for there can be no force without a direction( i think i got that from Joe) the force is expressed in etc.
i think maximizing wedge influence basically takes carving out to a minimal plot of fiber for the wedge to work against, that is also within the focused direction of the wedge, as well as most levraged position for the wedge to apply to. Also when you can, not working directly agianst gravity on it's stronges axis of pull (vertically).
Or, something like that,
