That about sums it up pretty good.
I don't have a problem with weighted word counts, even internal matching, but I've always negotiated my own matrix and always insist on weighting anything under 85% fuzzy match at 100% of my rate, among other things. This arrangement tends to fit the kinds of work I do.
But ok, if you don't like working with that structure then it's your right to set your fees as you like. And it can definitely be annoying when clients don't want to respect that.
