Is an interesting chart.....

For me more so the relationship between irons and driver. I hit my irons pretty much spot on the distances in the appropriate column but my strike with the driver is poor so the distances there are a lot less consistent.

I know what you mean, I always thought i hit my driver and 3w quite far in relation to my irons. Maybe not though.

Ball speed is a better indication of distance. SS only gives you how fast you've swung the club, ball speed lets you know how much SS you've imparted onto the ball.

I guess it depends on the driver and shaft combo. At Kings of Distance the fitter managed to have me driving 33 yards further with the correct combination of head, set up and shaft.
