I might call on the RFI audience to share their experience with regular electric motors

So, anyone have an opinion ?

Not an opinion -- they have no place in scientific discussions. :)

It is a FACT that the the electronic controllers for most variable speed motors are quite noisy, for the same reason that the switch-mode power supplies in today's wall warts are noisy -- poor design and construction that fails to prevent radiation and conduction of RF noise. In other words, best to avoid them.
