Too many what ifs. And you couldn?t possibly replicate every animal in a lab. They publish or will provide recommended minimum and maximum speeds for general use.


Yup, I know. That's why it was just hypothetical. But it'd be nice to have. But, as we all know and have seen evidence of, even within their recommended velocities we still have failures. Guess I was just thinking out loud...
