The chart has two variables. The one you can actually change is the third
The compatibility chart has two variables and the problem has four. This separates feathering from show-through from bleed-through, places your own nib and your own ink on the same scale, and prints the full matrix at every flow class — plus dry time, which runs the opposite way to everything else. Then the question nobody asks after the matrix: of the combinations that work, which can you afford to write in every day? An extra-fine on a dry ink uses a seventh of what a 1.5 mm stub on a saturated ink does. 13 pages, printable, with a ten-minute test protocol and a fill-in sheet.

Pages from a bottle, by nib and ink flow
How to measure your own millilitres a page in ten minutes — and why the flat default cannot be right
