Rationale for change
Reformatted the card to match its related card, nid:1535832866364, which reads: “Genu valgum (knock knees) is normal between ages {{c1::2}} and {{c1::5}}”
Importantly, both cards are now are answered in the form of an age range. Previously the format did not require the learner to remember which deformity was ≤2 and which deformity was 2-5. Knowledge that the answer to the other card is “2-5” was enough to correctly deduce the answer to this card must be ≤”2” without actually knowing whether the card is talking about inwards or outwards deviation of the knees. I personally found myself answering this card correctly by reading the last several words only.
