Consider the time spent in these steps: (aging from 1 --> 5)
1)New quasar (x units of time spent in this phase) <new matter just ejected along minor axes of seyfert
2)Medium quasar (x + y units '')
3)Old quasar (x+ y +z units '')
4)Blac (x + y + z + a units '')
5)Galaxies (x + y + z + a + b units) <old matter... close to base line level (along the bohr line of thinking)

You would naturally expect to see less quantization in a sky survey of objects in step 5.
There is nothing natural about it at all.
First of all the position of the spectral lines represent quantization of the energy levels.
The displacement of the spectral lines (ie redshift) does not.
Whether redshift occurs through an external field (ie Lamb shift), the doppler effect, cosmological or gravitational effects the spectral lines are displaced by any given amount subject to the magnitude of the effect and is not quantized.
So as I previously stated the apparent gaps in the intrinsic redshift data is due to lack of data.

Now on the subject of quasars. Given that the empirical data indicates that quasars are hyperactive galaxies with black holes at their centres, I'd like to know how a black hole is converted to stellar matter(??) if quasars evolve into "normal" galaxies.
