I see. That sounds indeed sensible, and faithful to the book's wording: "Each point of DR stops one point of basic damage but is destroyed in the process" (p. B47).
After some search, I find that this question seems to have appeared repeatedly in the forum but the designers haven't never commented yet. I think this is FAQ-worthy.
