Default RE: Speed - How do you measure it?

What I've never been able to figure out is why AMO went to all the trouble to adopt a light arrow standard (60# @ 30" w/360 grain arrow) and then keep advertising IBO speed. Doesn't make a lick of sense to me. Why didn't the idiots go ahead and adopt 70/30/350 and have done with it?

Of course, if they had to test according to an actual ASTM specification, they couldn't fudge on their draw length in order to lie about their speeds, could they...
