We saw it again in this conversation just now as well.

Remember that we can use the verb fàs + the comparative form of the adjective with the same meaning as the qualitative degree + rach:

AN CEUM BUADHACH
Tha an saoghal a’ dol an teothad.
Tha an saoghal a’ fàs nas teotha.
 
… tha samhraidhean air a dhol am flichead agus geamhraidhean am blàthad.
… tha samhraidhean air fàs nas fliche agus geamhraidhean nas blàithe.
 
… gum feum cùisean a dhol am miosad mus tèid iad am feabhas.
… gum feum cùisean fàs nas miosa mus fàs iad nas fheàrr.
