English term or phrase: on the demanding side of neutral
I'm not clear on how to tranlslate this. Other examples:

on the satisfied side of neutral; on the attractive side of neutral.

Context:
The building-level means for the green and conventional buildings were 4.28 and 4.47 (scale: 1-7) respectively, suggesting that, overall, jobs were on the demanding side of neutral.

"du côté satisfait de la neutralité"? Quelqu'un a unemeilleure idée?

Explanation:
échelle de 1 à 7
neutre = 3,5

les échelles s'appliquent à des items différents

dissatified 1 ...............3.5............. 7 satisfied
unattractive 1 ...............3.5............. 7 attractive
no demand 1 ...............3.5............. 7 demanding

mais c'est difficile de traduire "demand" sans connaître l'item. Demande de bâtiments écologiques / passifs?
