Yep, I'm with you 100% on that---that's why I said nice ball park.
It is a nice "memory aid" did you come up with it yourself or where did you find it?
very one knows(IMO) that 9th is "city gear" around 35-45 all of your city speeds. Mainly right around 45.....I never thought about a formula like
4+5= 9th
3+5=8th
