If a leading outer expansion diverges as logx and a derivative coefficient contains x−εz, balancing that nonlinear correction gives a layer larger than O(ε). Write x=εLX with L=log(1/ε) and subtract the large negative constant from z. Matching often introduces a logL correction and yields an endpoint slope of order 1/(εL). The balance must be derived from the actual equation; logarithmic divergence alone does not fix a universal layer width.
