Julian,
I don't know how much surface pressure or lift/downforce data if any Phil collected when he took his T100 to the Darko wind tunnel for testing in 2014 and 2017. But I doubt he dismisses all measurement data seeing as how he spends time and money on money on wind tunnel testing.

I know from experience all measurements require a grain of salt, and there are things i have seen in print i remain doubtful of based on my past experiences. Thus it doesnt suprise me that the two of you are lending varying levels of credence to different sources based on your past experiences. Thus you dont agree.

I don't actually know either of you, but realize my motivations in this conversation are selfish, in that i enjoy seeing both of your content, and I personally wouldnt want either of you to not post. Both of you have far more experience than I do.

I personally feel that if we were all sitting in a living room and not on the semi anonymous internet removed from broader context we would get along better.
