I understand your point 100%. My point is just this, gear ratio matters, it is a great indicator of what the reel is designed to do. If I only told you the gear ratio of two common reels on the market you could probably with a high rate of success tell me which one was designed for cranking and which one was going to pick up a lot of line on the retreive.
If I could only have 1 piece of info I would much rather have the gear ratio, as the difference between 24 and 26 inches of line means very little to me in terms of how the reel is going to feel. Ultimately we use both pieces of info to gain a good understanding of exactly how the reel is going to feel when we start turning the handle. guess we have to agree to disagree on this one.
