I agree with the confusion, but the notation is not new, it is 2 or 3 years old. I already told the story. My tables are drawn independant of any study done by Concillian or TheDragoon, but at the first study that is printed in my 1.09 guide, only the spear and bow attack speeds were taken and added later from concillian's tables. And they were given references.
However, because of the confusion, I had changed the term WIAS in my most recent update to WTS (so, before the message that I am quoting was sent :)), ie. weapons total speed, and seems that I will further change it to WSM if it is the exact common definition. It would be nice if TheDragoon read my guide to check before posting that.
About the definitions, if you properly define something before you use it, then there should not be any problem. Redefining will be some kind of abuse yes, but this situation is different from that, since it is not renaming something.
About the synergy thing, good decision :) But if they are objective, feel free to post.
I hope you will stop calling the 'old' notation as 'new notation' as a matter of respect to a past study.
