Very
very much agree Alex..that's why I put the "might" in why "V1 might be less than VS and VMCA."
I did start to add a paragraph to my post to the effect there was no strict sequence of speeds but deleted it since it made it too verbose, possibly wasn't going to help address the query raised by mdt13 at a suitable level, and was mindful that the front end of the thread was several years old so who knows what those posters are doing now.
As you imply it's having a grasp of the principles and what each speed means that counts.
