Some of the confusion on the list may be attributable to inaccurate measurements, or manufacturing variances, but much can be explained by the blade exposure likely being more important to aggressiveness than blade gap.
If you haven't seen this photo illustration already, it can be helpful in clarifying the differences between blade gap and blade exposure:

Yes, I have seen the picture. Great one and explains in a fine way those bolded words. I agree that blade exposure might be one important thing in aggressiveness and how blade cuts. I'm am a woodworking teacher and as well as chisels, handplanes and sharpening are really close to my heart I love to sharpen and use my 10 different shirogami kitchen knives ( usuba, yanagiba, guyto's, petty etc..) Different bevels really matter how blade cuts.
