Punctuation in a sentence "from A or B to C and even D"

Is there a need for punctuation in the following sentence: "Response time has reduced from weeks or days to hours and even minutes in some cases."

More generally, how should one use punctuation in a family of sentences:

" ..... from A or B to C and even D ....."?


Solution 1:

Technically no punctuation is necessary, but it might be helpful to add a few commas and parentheses:

Response time has reduced, from weeks or days, to hours (and even minutes in some cases).

Solution 2:

How about separating the from ideas from the to ideas. Then treat the add-on idea with long dashes. (I've grown to love the long dashes, revealed to me by an editor long ago...)

As in, "Response time has reduced from weeks or days, to hours — and even minutes — in some cases."

In the second sub query, " ... from A or B to C and even D ...", it would follow as "...from A or B, to C — and even D."

The sense of each ends with "to hours" or "to C" as the capper of the idea, then an afterthought chimes in, hence the long dash.
