There are very few rules of thumb in the book, and where they are used, they are always qualified or, when numerical, use ranges not specific figures.

I think there is only one exception to that, and it was in a direct quote from a professional aerodynamicist.

Same in my engine management tuning book, suspension book, electronics book - rules of thumb are not a good way of modifying cars.
