My wife though, she says that speed is all I'm interested in. Can't think what she must mean by that comment.

Is it meant to be a contest of how quickly someone can clean a pane of glass or is it how quickly someone can make a half hearted effort at pretending to clean varying parts of a piece of glass. They missed more than they covered.

Whats it meant to prove?

Its a contest for the fastest, you are deducted points off your time for missing stuff as pointed out by yourself. So there time will be way lower if they have made an ass of it. All these guys can do, is compete for the fastest. If they want to go further then they can challenge somebody like Terry Burrows Worlds Fastest under the strict guidance and attendance of the World Guinness Book of Records :)
