I doubt that many manufacturers care too much about Bill's testing. It's certainly not because it's no good. Rather the simple fact is that the most money is spent based upon things like looks, ease-of-use (definitely worth considering) and non-fact-based hype instead of hard core scientific evidence.

yes but . . .
I am thinking that over time it may change
for the present the 'established' wb mfgrs are quite content with the ignorance level of their customers, as such is the most cost-effective approach
but
new wb mfgrs are QUITE interested in 'proving' the performance capability of their offerings
(and I'm now doing about 50/50 between present and prospective mfgrs)

my suspicion is that WCers will become more sophisticated over time and eventually the loss of sales will compel the 'big boys' to test also

-> rest assured I’m waiting for one of them to put up BS #s, THAT will be a field day for all
