Agreed. We figured the typical max distance a team will want to travel is on the order of 11 ft. If you gear for much faster, you won't even achieve your max speed. Also, having too much speed is pretty dangerous when there are totes that are being stacked all around you that you don't want to knock down, so it also comes down to controllability. If you gear for ~10 ft/s, then you'll get to your destination in about 1.5-2 seconds (accounting for acceleration/deceleration), which is, IMO, a pretty decent target.
