It has always puzzled me why stick shake speeds are so low - as per the 'note'. I would have thought that having them 10% higher would still avoid inadvertent operation and give even more warning of an unsafe speed - after all, in normal ops, no-one should be anywhere NEAR them? What is the logic behind the slim margin?
