Description

I already read #22628

To me: min_num is an option for validation and extra is an option for presentation
Currently, in an empty formset, you get min_num+extra empty forms, I think it should be max(min_num, extra) instead

You should say a little more to strengthen your proposal. For example, what are the ramifications for backwards compatibility? What does the documentation say about this?

Looks like this was considered previously and rejected due to backwards compatibility. Tentatively accepting as a documentation enhancement pending no further arguments to change the behavior.
