As I understand it the Beyer people had the DRF programmers run various studies on the database a few years ago. It was as a result of this that Beyer accepted that weight did play some part rather than no part, his previous view. Interesting also that Mark Hopkins considers a point per two pounds 'insignificant.' Given that a weight range of 8lbs (especially with bugs) is not uncommon then it's not saying much for his confidence in the figures' accuracy.
