Well glad to see Seeley and Morse were seeing uniformity in
the broodnest area after 3/4s of a century of upsizing, and
not various sizes all over the place like others see in so
many hives/colonies today due to so much mongrelization.

 Maybe with more regression back in another 3/4 of a
century, the bees will be back down to 4.8mm and and
smaller, below the 4.9mm center for natural, and still with
uniformity in the broodnest, and not so many variance cell
sizes.
