Mark,
I agree with you fully. I just wanted to point out that it was not Texel system designers who decided to use just one number to rate speeds under varying conditions but more the lazyness of people for not picking up on and using these decribtions in teh extreme light and heavy parts of the segment.
How many did only use D-pn despite the fact that there were numbers for evey windspeed ?
That was my point.
