Feed, safe, moderation, sparingly, not

Is that the cascade of good to not good? I may have missed a term.
I'm seeking to grasp the overall big picture that goes beyond pass/fail, but rather proportions.
There are many plants in each category. How would you break it down for proportion?
90% variety of "feed", 5% "safe", 4% "moderation", and 1% "sparingly".
Most of the tortoises I have are indoors most of the time. Their diet is what I offer.
I typically have about 80% grocery greens (leaf lettuces, cultured chicories, kale, spring mix, arugula), 15% other greens (mulberry leaves, grape leaves, decompressed pellets of grasses/legumes, moringa, hibiscus, etc.) and 5% hard produce (opuntia, grated squashes, sweet potato, okra, etc.).
Aside from mushrooms added for hingebacks, a wide range of species does well with this proportions/mix.
