Does DG Neglect AIR?

From J/R, quoted in 2005 BRD, "when determining ordinary effort, wind is a factor; sun in the fielder's eyes is not a factor." BLAH, BLAH BLAH ....

Clearly, you recognize the importance of WIND on a batted ball. But you (so often) neglect AIR resistance on a 100-mph ^rising^ fastball. Have you let an emotional condition leaning towards gravity CLOUD your better judgement?

Wouldn't you agree, "when determining a RISING fastball, AIR and VELOCITY are factors?
