/**
* @see {@linkcode getSpeciesForLevel} uses an ease in and ease out sine function:
* @see {@link https://easings.net/#easeInSine}
* @see {@link https://easings.net/#easeOutSine}
* Ease in is similar to an exponential function with slower growth, as in, x is directly related to y, and increase in y is higher for higher x.
* Ease out looks more similar to a logarithmic function shifted to the left. It's still a direct relation but it plateaus instead of increasing in growth.
*
* This function is used to calculate the x given to these functions, which is used for evolution chance.
*
* First is maxLevelDiff, which is a denominator for evolution chance for mons without wild evolution delay.
* This means a lower value of x will lead to a higher evolution chance.
*
* It's also used for preferredMinLevel, which is used when an evolution delay exists.
* The calculation with evolution delay is a weighted average of the easeIn and easeOut functions where preferredMinLevel is the denominator.
* This also means a lower value of x will lead to a higher evolution chance.
* @param strength {@linkcode PartyMemberStrength} The strength of the party member in question
* @returns {@linkcode integer} The level difference from expected evolution level tolerated for a mon to be unevolved. Lower value = higher evolution chance.
