I'm arguing that the 'credits' that we actually see reported are not 
really 'cobblestones'.

What we see is some "fudge-factor * s...@h-flops-count" that variably adds 
up to approximately the 'expected' cobblestones. The variable nature of 
the processing for s...@h due to the AR dependence of the s...@h-wus compounds 
the inaccuracies and problem still further.
