hooves, I'm not sure Beyer should be adjusting figs because of different pace scenarios.
Beyer has never tried to give an honest account of all parameters. If he doesn't try to adjust a fig to account for a huge bias or a terrible trip or a loose-on-the-lead benefit, then why should he now take pace factors into account? The figs were originally a way to compare the final times of races run at different tracks, and races run on different days at the same track. When Beyer deviates from that vision, he risks undermining his own figs.
