I stand corrected.  However, what should I call it when I think a stereo
image has excessive depth for my tastes (instead of the natural "I think
it has too much depth" that I'd ordinarily use in spoken English)?

P.S. - If I can't fuse it, I'd say "It's ********'d up".  Or at least
       I think that and say something more diplomatic.   :-)

P.P.S. - I agree that having trouble fusing is definitely "too much", but
         one of my points was that one can have "too much" with even less 
         than that when taken as an artistic judgment call.  This has been
         my opinion of some of the images I've made.
