Need to dive more!
I have a q which I'd like to air given it's similar to the OP's ultimate question; it's about the numerical difference between Gf-lo and Gf-hi.
If Gf-hi=Gf lo then the latter has no meaning except that the lower the absolute number is, the more of a slight (clockwise - pic below) twist from the M-value line (given the M-value and Ambient lines are not parallel). And having a lower Gf-lo obviously means a stronger clockwise twist; deeper stops than otherwise. Given that obvious comment, is there a feeling / logic / evidence etc as to the appropriate difference between these numbers?
