Anyone remember where the 1000 hr requirement came from? Most study derived numbers don’t end in three zeroes. That’s more the number you get when you pull it from some administrator or politicians orifice.
That’s probably just rounding but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
the 1498.666666 hour rule just doesn’t roll off the tongue quite as well.
