not really, it only proves that the said limit is way too low.
In that case you could measure *anyone* who can't punch a starfighter hard enough to dent it, and you'd get a 'way too low' estimate.
true, but we know that Grievous won against 6 Jedi team in Hypori, so we know that he can't be defeated by single person with regular strength (the fact he has been shown to be capable of greater feat is unimportant).

whole point retardly, low lower limit to Grievous' combat skill (and while not holding back, the Jedi were not at their full strength and capabities at Hypori (due to Grievous' (or the fear and terror he caused in the Jedi)).

Reven, I agree with Pcm that there's just no purpose to this, nor any actual results other than loosely subjective and vague less-thans and greater-thans.
I believe in a sign of Zeta.

no closer to skill and strength (and the Force for Force users), but this thread has no purpose anymore, so we could just let it die.

Statement: The Jedi at Hypori were already pretty tired. They'd survived their Acclamator crashing into the planet and a large protracted battle in which all their clone troopers and some Jedi were killed.
Their nerves were already pretty shot when Grievous showed up acting all badass (and hell, he IS pretty badass).

..which made it sound like the only reason the Jedi weren't at full capability was because ambigous, unquantifiable factors like "fear" and "terror" (though they were significant factors).
Neglecting to mention that they'd just barely survived a prolonged losing battle, and were in fact still surrounded by thousands of battle droids, just didn't seem right.
