JMK, I happen to be an engineer myself and am well versed in the mechanics of motion, its equations and curves as determined by the forces applied, and as you say, it is not just an opinion, it is an exact science that can not possibly be argued against. But it comes down to the universal response " don't confuse the issue with facts, it is a judgment call I am empowered to make, and you cant argue against it".
