How does this make any sense?
To summerize: If you want to maximize the benefits of aero equipment SLOW DOWN.
They don't claim slow people are benefiting more than fast people, they are saying they gain more time over their old slow self. As you said, that is true. If your idea of somebody benefiting more is strictly based on seconds, then sure, I guess that is how *you* could take it, but that's now how I read it at all. They are just showing example numbers (which are useful IMO, considering most people on Cervelos are not doing sub hour 40k's), and that's it.
