Hi Manimal,
Thanks for your input, and I appreciate you relaying some of the conversations you’ve had in the past with different foam and mattress companies.
One thing I would do is place a caution on your statement of what pourers are advising mattress manufacturers, as while you may have had some conversations supporting your comments, there are other foam pourers who differ with those thoughts and advise differently. I’d also advise a caution on your statements of the reasoning for manufacturers making changes to their products, as unless you were personally involved in the decision-making process with these companies, you would have no first-hand knowledge of such information, although you certainly may have an opinion based upon your talks and experiences.
When statements are made with such certainty on sites like this, readers can often accept them as facts when in some cases they may not be so, and while it may seem a small point to make, on a site such as this where the differentiation between fact and opinion is so important, I feel the need to again point this out, and appreciate you allowing me to do so.
As for your thought on what should be the “new HD quality standard”, I appreciate your thoughts and opinion (and as you’re well aware I respect anyone’s right to disagree), but I won’t be making a change to my recommendations at this time, based upon the thousands of conversations I’ve had with foam pourers and mattress manufacturers. But as foam technology marches on, and more longitudinal data comes in, that of course could change. 
We chatted about this a bit last year.
As always, I appreciate you sharing you thoughts and experiences!
