I am interested in hearing what others think should be our final two points.
comments?

Not sure I understand what exactly you're looking at but......
Speeding might not be an FE killer. If you are talking about driving faster than 60 MPH then yes. Driving 40 in a 30 might return better FE if the shift point is right.
Hard acceleration is not necessarily a FE killer and can return as good if not better returns on FE depending stage lenght.
For the general masses
Instantaneous FE readout
Throttle position
Digital MPH readout
Ignition timing
RPM
