As others in other threads have noted also, I had noticed this with PACE's GET manual that it was far closer to the sort of pacing we all do than is the APT. It reminded me of how pharmaceutical companies underpower drug trials by using Old Drug A at a lower dose than would be considered clinically therapeutic against New Drug B.
Yes, this has frequently been commented on. APT is a clinical therapy found nowhere outside the PACE trial. Its not a valid comparison therapy. It goes to show motive to manipulate and misrepresent.
