Glad to see this conversation has swung around to begin considering actual LP gear performance value vs ISK gear performance value (which according to the OP table descrip was left out intentionally to allow a straight number comparison) since the main "thing" about most LP gear is that it provides a higher value (fitting, performance, isk/aur cost) than its regular market equivalent. Ignoring that creates an incomplete data pool, and no matter how accurate the math is about an incomplete data pool, you can only get incomplete analysis from an incomplete data pool.
ie, Conservative radio talkshow host Rush Limbaugh polls all female callers to his show and asks them what party they'll be voting for. His show, being conservative, primarily has conservative callers. So the women surveyed primarily associate themselves conservative. And Rush goes on the air and announces, "Women are voting largely conservative this year!". Not neccessarily the case, just the ones who called his show and took his poll are.

A flat conversion rate for lp:isk is a good thing. Generating one from the existing lp store vs market without quantifying for the high performance aspects of the lp items tho will not generate an accurate one. Its like price comparing cars and ignoring mpg. It only establishes an incomplete comparison.

Can I? Yes. Will I? No. If you're doing it wrong will I say so since decisions from poor data=poor decisions? Maybe.
