Upvoted, though you should probably adjust for quality somehow. As Eliezer wrote here:

There are stories which are better than Worm, and stories which were written faster than Worm, but I don’t know of any epic which was ever written faster and better than Worm.

I would imagine quality would have a separate unit, and (speed x quality) would be a third unit defined in terms of the first two, either with its own name or just referred to as "(quality unit)-bows".

So I guess the quality unit would be the Wild?
