I got the 14.75" from Dave Lavery he designed the game -
I don't know where the rounding up and down has come from - you are either within the marks on the stick or not, how far shouldn't matter.

No! We all (even me) got the 1 SHU = 14.75" data from Team Update #1. The WRITTEN MATERIALS supplied by FIRST are the ONLY valid source for the rules. The written rules take precedence over all other comments, written or spoken, from anyone else (including Woodie and me).

I can offer some insight into the philosophy behind an element of the game design, and some knowledge of why some things are the way they are. But FIRST specifies the rules, and the interpretations and rulings on the rules. They are your source of information - use them!
