You guys got it all wrong.

Look the increased Yaw damp limitation, consider the certification reasons..yada, yada, and it should be clear..
Not sure what you're trying to say... You get a higher yaw damp limitation because the strakes provide more aerodynamic stability at altitude, decreasing oscillations. As I understand it, it's basically a damper.

Flash... I believe in your last paragraph equivalent airspeed, not indicated, would be the correct term. It's important to make that distinction when operating at high altitude.
