Also, on this conversation about 4E and a damage per level chart, is that "Difficulty Class and Damage by Level"? in chapter 3 of the DMG? If so, that seems actually to be one of the things that (with different math rather than 4E's out of control exponentials) got carried into 5E from 4E. It's in chapter 9 now, and the table is "Monster Statistics by Challenge Rating" — see the damage/round column.
