It wasnt an educated guess it was just around 2 meters and felt good. I am not saying worked or not, but there was no science behind the number.

There is a vast difference between doing something that is proven to be generally helpful before you know if it is specifically helpful, and making up an idea.

The fact you cannot understand that vast gulf of difference is frankly hilarious.

They had no idea if it would work or not and had no reason to believe either way. Do you believe in checking hypothesis?

Do you think they didn't or don't continue with the new variants as budgets allow? Your ignorance is made more pathetic by your obstinance.
