When I said that, I simply meant coming up with the list of criteria, not finding the relevant data for any particular hone. I didn't have a good way of explaining what I wanted, so I thought I'd just dive in and start listing things so that people would see which direction I was going.

I know any real numbers for a hone would be tough to measure (though sticking some slurry under a microscope would be simple enough). However, I feel a lot of these things could be inferred from the way the hones perform. Heck, we infer a bunch of this stuff already, but we talk about it using (what I feel are) kind of vague, non-specific terms.
