I wouldn't take an anecdotal unsubstantiated statistic like that with anything 
more than a grain of salt.  There were no sorts of control conditions, or suite 
of 
documents on which this number out of the air was taken.  Learning to maintain 
a focal length distance, and compensate for ambient lighting conditions isn't 
intuitive, or non trivial in terms of requisite patience and practice, 
especially considering the universe of print against which one is also placing 
their ability to 
handle the afore mentioned variables.
