The quality or degree of being consumptive; the rate or intensity of consumption or wasting.
From consumptive + -ity (Latin suffix forming abstract nouns). Similar to productivity, capacity, or sensibility—creating abstract qualities from adjectives.
The -ity suffix creates abstract measurements of qualities—so 'consumptivity' measures how consumptive something is. It's a technical term that appears more in economics and medicine than everyday speech!
