Case 0: If I have no pants and I get one pant I am thrilled with joy. I am happiest person on earth. I am the most obvious contender for getting pants. I can cover my skin and beat the cold.
Case 1: If I have 1 pant and I get one pant I will be super delighted. I can put on the second pant while the first one is being cleaned. I can always wear clean pants. Stay hygienic and clean.
Case 2: If I have 2 pants and I get one pant I will be happy. Given any day I have two pairs to chose from when changing. If one of the pants gets stolen, torn or burnt in a fire I still have two to cover my skin.
Case 3: If I have 3 pants and I get one pant I will still be happy. I would say I have plenty of pants! My pant future is secure and I have a good variety in my wardrobe.

Case 10: If I have 10 pants and I get one pant it doesn't really change much. 10 pants versus 11 pants. What's the deal bro? I could even have lost one without noticing the decrease in number of pants. It only adds variety and fashion. Both are naught in utility in this case when compared to Case 0 utility.
