An example of a weakness would be that the F18 has consistently become faster since it's introduction. However the measurements have not changed.

Thats is not true actually.
The Texel Rating has been adapted over the years to reflect changes in boat and rig design trends.

This brought the F18 number down from 102 a few years ago to 100 now, and the A's and F16 rating has gone up 1 and 2.
