Ah - thank you, dissonance.

These are very helpful links.

So, 5, then 8. That's my assumption anyway. This can't be known for sure until a test was designed uniquely for this theory. My over all point is that you shouldn't feel restricted to focusing on Six or Four. I'm currently working out some theories regarding relations to auxilliary type and supporting type models, but their still in the oven, I'm afraid.
Thank you, Magic.

My hesitation to simply accept 6 over 8 was to preserve accuracy - a point well defined in your post.

The 5w8 is significantly closer to my approximate behavior than the 5w6; 5w3 (my next closest scores...).
