It's just that people are sometimes misled into believing that using high nitro levels is a waste of money.

The message is that most engines designed for pattern use are set up to exploit nitro at fairly high levels, 15& -40%.
A couple of extra details ; Methanol's boiling pt =65'C and flash pt = 11'C.
;Nitromethane's boiling pt = 102'C and flash pt = 35'C.
