If I test 5 blocks, a, b, c, d, e, and on my system d performs the best on my die sim at whatever flow rate I am using then how is that not telling him what the better block is? All he has to do is try and match my flow rate. Even if we used multiple flow rates and made a chart they will STILL have to try and match a flow rate so why give them more options than they know what to do with?

I did not express the masses part of my anal ravings very good. I was allluding to giving in to what the masses want as far as a test goes (they do not know what is required so why give in). As you well know, a blocks performance curve is not linear in respect to flow rate. Someone could easily skew a test to the dumb masses by running a really low flow for a block that is designed for a higher water presure. A set of flow rate points establishes a curve that one can see the direction performance is heading on either end. A really well block could be made to look like it is only slightly better than the pack with only one flow comparison.
I agree that after a proper test was done it could be diluted or dumbed down in its presentation but there will always be data to back up conclusions at least.
