Weight affects horizontal speed, but it is MARIGINAL

Wow! Have I stepped on someone's corner of the internet?
Once again. Forest for the trees.
Nobody has disputed the direct effect is a marginal loss in speed. However a marginal loss in speed does not classify the affects of weight as marginal in totality.
Simply put, that is just basics when it comes to aerodynamics.
It’s like a doctor trying to prove that the tiny spot of lung cancer on the x-ray is marginal because it only affects a small portion of the lungs.
All the best,
