Ted. I am one of the beaters, as are you. The trouble is, whatever
your reasoning (and technically your ideas are correct, in many ways),
there are accepted standard ways to compare things in the industry. So
leave a bit of room for convention in the interests of communication.
You are not going to alter the system, which does work, as long as the
parameters are understood and agreed upon by those concerned.

You obviously don't know. This has been beat to death hear numerous
times. Go away and learn some math.
