Plateaued BPFSL --> plateaued EL?

A month ago, there was a 0.7” difference between my BPFSL (stretched flaccid length) and my BPEL. Today, the difference is only 0.4”, because BPEL grew by 0.3” (see links in my signature). That is: by BPFSL hasn’t budged.

From reading up here, it seems that BPFSL gains often lead BPEL gains by about 1 month. I suspect this means, my BPEL won’t keep increasing at the rate it has. I’ll probably have to be glad to see 0.1” this next month.

Is this your experience too?
