This defense has been modified in various jurisdictions in the US,
I was taught that it's been modified in *all* US jurisdictions. The most common modification is the diminish the award by the percentage of the victim's contribution. For simplicity's sake, this is sometimes forcibly rounded (to, say, 25%, 50%, 75%).
