Makes sense. LOL, so replacing valve to one with thinner throttle shaft should technically increase max flow even within same throttle body

How about make it fatter, more streamlined/contoured like a bullet or wing shape. That way bump "wouldn't be in the way".

It's because of the volume of the blade?

[pedantic]...cross sectional area of the shaft.[/pedantic]

It's not a mystery but the control system is designed to account for that extra few degrees of wasted travel. Just doesn't use it.

That part was the mystery.

While a raindrop shape has the lowest possible drag coefficient, it's still not zero.
