You did not dispute, you pretended the config for Habsheim was unknown.
No, I was asking where you were getting the evidence for your claim that the demonstration flown by GC on the video was at CONF FULL.

It's not a restriction, but a delay
What a delay if not a restriction ?
On which graph do you see that?
Same
graph mentioned by HN39 earlier.
I'm sure there are some areas that could have been improved, but on the whole it seems solid.
For someone who wanna stay blind, surely.
