What the Trust Level badges signify _is_ available.

If you go to the various Trust Level badges you can see

> This badge is granted when you reach trust level …

That is, “when you reach” and _not_ “when you are”

In other words, the granting of Trust Levels are more like “milestones” than “current level”, though the current level is the highest reached and Trust Level 3 should probably say “reach and maintain” as it can be un-granted.

In explaining that, I see it can be a bit confusing, can’t it?
