1 w 0 1 p 0 insensitivity-region 1 Inverse-S: How define formally? Specify inflection point b, then require concavity to the left, convexity to the right? We prefer a different formalization. • Specify insensitivity region in the middle. 2. Specify through inequalities that marginal w is smaller there than in extreme regions. 3. Avoid comparisons between two extreme regions (by restricting domains of inequalities).
