Much as I'd love to take credit, as I said to Martin about the other quote, that's verbatim from the SR website. Here's the whole section, if you want a real laugh...

The thing is, they have a great product but it could have evolved through trial and error as much as from understanding the physics behind them. In fact, they allude to this elsewhere in their website, where they say that for a long time they could not surpass the performance of the Orange fuse until they finally arrived at the Purple.
The marketing people just went to town on it.
