Description	Visual Representation
Unmodified fuzzy value: this is the unmodified fuzzy value to which the modifier is applied.
After more_Or_Less modifier applied: the MORE_OR_LESS modifier returns the expanded FuzzyValue passed as its argument, having raised all the membership values of the FuzzyValue to the power 1/3.
