The point of my conjecture is that there is a very good reason to

That, along with a number of other entries in the list is a "space-only"
criterion.
It seems reasonable that runtime duration,as well as program complexity is a
factor for most real-world data. As well as being generated by a small
system,
observed data was probably generated in a limited time. Space-time metrics
are clearly needed. I think we can reject any alleged superiority of any
space-only metric.
