I am sure you are correct.   I have harvested 395 pounds (weighed after
extraction) from a single hive, and would have (I expect) taken more if
I had more drawn comb, or had extracted earlier and put the empties back
on.   For me this was a fluke.   I could not plan and execute the
process with witnessed documentation.   That suggests a certain consistency.
