I could have sworn I remembered a glass arbitrage exploit between the Cartographer and the Librarian.

But, running the numbers now:
  • 1 Emerald
  • → 4 Glass
  • → 10⅔ Glass Pane
  • → 0.97 Emerald
…this does not violate EMH/conservation-of-emeralds.

I'm really sure I remember this being a thing. I even showed my friend the math, which used to work out. But I can't find anything on the wiki about either of these trades being changed.

If you build a raid farm and get hero of the village, your cartographer will trade you 6 glass panes for an emerald if I remember correctly. I know those aren't the default prices, but honestly a lot of trades aren't really worth your time w/o hero of the village and / or zombie cured price drops

Now, obviously, a 3% loss per-cycle is obliterated by the the smallest possible Reputation discount dropping the Glass Pane trade from 11:1 to to 10:1 (that is, a 9% discount), to say nothing of Zombification/Cure discounts…
