But yet, people got freaked out an insane about thinking that he ran a 4.24 and was suddenly a top ten pick, but he goes back to the second or third because he only ran a 4.43 40. (See The Bad Guy's post in this thread regarding unmitigated enthusiasm about a fifteenth of a second difference in a 40 time.)

Exactly. If someone opens their cell phone stopwatch feature they can hit the button as fast as they can and probably get .07 - .09. A 4.45 may be acceptable for someone, but the 4.53 means he is slow. It's just a fraction of a second.
