It is unlikely that he did calculations to arrive at his 2/0 statement.
More likely it is a "stock" prescription that works with all interested

When I erected my tower, my PE (a ham who was recommended by TT people) wrote:

I presume he knows of what he writes. Since it's a one-time investment and I
didn't want to PO my PE (and also not pass my county's final inspection), I
just did what he wrote.
