At least, that's my assumption. I've no idea whether or not it's correct.

Not. The "bubble" is the same size (5 miles for ARTCC?).

Interesting, and somewhat surprising to me. If you view separation as a
function of time (ie. targets are separated based upon how much time it
would take for them to reach one another), this model appears to offer the
fast-movers less of a cushion.

Ah, well. It'll certainly not be the last thing that surprises me.
