I agree, but the point for a new design would be that you could size the fin to have a VMC that wasn't limiting for mid weights, knowing that any light weight cases shouldn't be a problem because the higher accel will roughly balance the higher VR. Right now we effectively oversize fins and rudders because VMC can affect all your performance.

I agree that for this case the VRs dont show any benefit at higher weights.
