Agreed about your four claims. I think what value the default template has is for canopies, blisters, aerocaps, external hinges & etc. With a higher fineness ratio.

This is as close as I could find a fit for the 'default' template:




A sectioned Type II could be center steer, between the front wheelwells. It fits the hemicircular front profile.

My "Template":



Three-quarters the wheelwell drag, but it needs to be truncated to a box cavity.
