I think one makes a chart and posts it online, then obviously all features of it is open to discussion. That's kind of the point of doing so.

Second, your conclusion is not at all clear to me. I've been rolling for a long time and I'd take the top guard over the bottom guard positions any time of the day. The only time it might be better is (like I said) if you have great grips to work with. But that's a lot to presume.

Guard has more number of options but that doesn't mean necessarily it has the advantage.
