Let me elaborate.

There are two parts of the effect that Judge Moreno has, depending on the base it is being compared to.

Against non-owners:

JM is expected to add 1 additional encounter per 20 in comparison to other players who don't have it in their possession or 5 more for every 100. In the grand scale of things, that is not very significant IMO. So your friend's ambivalent reply is not unexpected.

Against the application:

JM is expected to increase the base probability set into the software - which nobody knows the value of except the developers, say n - so the owner will now have a n+5% of chance of meeting a WG. That said, n may have many other multipliers applied to it to make it even less of a certainty.

Anyway, we're digressing.
