Flight numbers don't mean anything. They can give you the vaguest of an idea of how the manufacturer wants you to think the disc flies. Why is there an obsession with them?
I think most golfers see flight numbers this way. You need to have SOME kind of idea what a disc is about when buying on line. Outside of a picture, you depend on some kind of information to determine a putter from a driver, stable from understable...
Could be a written description, but that is still completely subjective. Could be a pictogram, but that is still completely subjective. Could be a video, of some guy chucking the disc, but again...completely subjective.
I think the point IS to provide "vaguest of an idea of how the manufacturer want you the think the disc flies".
