HEE HEE !
maybe I know less than that ?

I'm just sayin... It seems to me that much of the reason NHRA removed the spring pressure and duration rules, was to simplify inspection and enforcement. Of course it changed things. This rocker allowance can be simplified too. Merely have a ratio tolerance... IE; +/- .05, and if lift at valve checks ok... we're good.
I understand that "ingenious" folks may discover advantages one way or another. Positioning of the fulcrum-point for one. Shaft rocker setups are probably more stable, but stud rockers are more user friendly.

I dunno
maybe I'm just simple ?!
