Naive fair-counting adaptation of Malle's conjecture

Let GG be a non-trivial finite group and let kk be a number field. Write f(K/k)\mathfrak{f}(K/k) for the product of the primes of kk that ramify in KK. For gG{id}g\in G-\{\operatorname{id}\}, let Cl(g)\operatorname{Cl}(g) be its conjugacy class, and write ghg\sim h when Cl(g)\operatorname{Cl}(g) and Cl(h)\operatorname{Cl}(h) are equivalent under the cyclotomic action of kk. The fair-counting adaptation of Malle's conjecture. There exist an integer b(G,k)0b(G,k)\geq 0 and a real number c(G,k)>0c(G,k)>0 such that

{K/k:Gal(K/k)G, Nk/Q(f(K/k))X}c(G,k)X(logX)b(G,k),\left|\left\{K/k:\operatorname{Gal}(K/k)\cong G,\ N_{k/\mathbb{Q}}(\mathfrak{f}(K/k))\leq X\right\}\right|\sim c(G,k)X(\log X)^{b(G,k)},

and b(G,k)=1+nb(G,k)=-1+n, where nn is the number of equivalence classes of G{id}G-\{\operatorname{id}\} under \sim. This is a naive modification using the product of ramified primes as a fair counting function; the paper's abstract states that it is not true in general.
