John: Don't beat up on yourself, that's someone else's job. ;-) I usually end up with the M3 inside M6 outside test having the M3 beating a little slower than the M6. I think this is due more to iH than to stretch. So, I believe that your statement "A3-C#4 should beat roughly the same as F3-D4." is correct, especially because of the word "roughly".
