The purpose of this paper is two-fold. Sections 2 and 3 are motivated by an observation that certain theorems concerning "diminishing orbital diameters" (introduced in [1]) are true under weaker assumptions. Specifically, we investigate the relationship between that concept and alternate conditions such as "asymptotic regularity", and in the process we sharpen some metric space results established in [1;5]. Mention is made in these sections of examples which show that certain additional weakenings of our hypotheses cannot be made, but we include in detail only the one which seemed to us most intricate.
