That's my point.
It's like have a discussion about the different width of tires....70, 60, 50 and how well they make a car handle. Only to find uot that their are 45 and even 35 available!!!!

It's a meaningless discussion when in the real world there are several products that will serve the purpose.

THis current grille block was used (with several other mods) to achieve 30.4mpg over 1700 miles at 59mph moving average over 2 days from 300ft elevation thru 7000+(Flagstaff) on to Abilene Texas. In a 3801lb, V8 4dr vehicle with an EPA of 22mpg hwy.
