REFLECTOR: Another VG question

[Tom]

Recently got the instructions and templates from Velocity and am still 
waiting on the StolSpeed VGs. In the interim I did something that may 
cause me to lose my male chauvanist card--I actually read the 
instructions. Anyhow, the plans call for 12 pairs of VGs on each wing 
but 16 pairs on the canard which is obviously a much smaller surface. 
I'm sure this has been tested and works but I'm just trying to better 
understand the concept. If you want the canard to always stall first 
shouldn't you be less aggressive with VGs on the canard??  Why not use 
half the recommended number on the canard? thx for any input..Tom
