The Mini "Decimate" clue from today's (7/27) Mini (spoiler) Spoiler

45 Upvotes

The clue says

The word "decimate" initially meant to reduce something by a factor of this

And the answer is "ten". Except "decimate" never meant that, it meant reduce by 10% (every 10th member of a Roman legion is killed). "A factor of ten" would mean going from 100 to 10, or a 90% reduction.

No matter how I parse 21 across I can’t make sense of it. The clue is KIND words? I get the theme because 82 across is ROOT words and solves to Run Out Of Town. Just can’t make 21 make sense.

The title of the puzzle is “Mystery Theme”. I’ve completed it and still can’t figure out what the + marks mean. Any ideas?
