It is rather hard to justify that number.

The standard justification comes in what used to be a large niche: farms. “You’re making people break up the family farm and sell of part to make it happen.”

If you’ve dealt with farms the sleight of hand and dishonesty in that is obvious. For those who haven’t, the value of an estate is net its attendant debts. A family farm with several million dollars of land that has no attendant debt is, well, it can handle being broken up.
