F-111 Aardvark (all) should get their OEFs (Oswald efficiency) increased again

Can I get some help finding/deciphering sources for this? I know that through testing and LOTS of experience, an F-111F pulling at less than 10 degrees per second bleeds more speed with the wings swept back than if the airbrakes are out during that same time frame. The OEF was nerfed on all variants shortly after release, and now their FMs are hilariously busted to the point where they have worse energy retention than most aircraft with an AoA button, and their stabilators are quite possibly the most effective airbrakes in the game. There’s no way this is historical, right? Aardvarks weren’t falling out of the sky when slightly pulling after all.
