Wouldn't Snatch be a little more suitable than Clean & Jerk? Isn't a Snatch basically a Clean & Jerk without a pause?

Unless I'm wildly wrong Snatch should be 8xBL right?

With ST 20; HT 12; Will 20 (what would the Limitation % be for "for Extra Effort Only?"); Lifting HT+8 [32]-20

BL would be 273 on an average (roll of 10) Lifting roll with -10 (+50%) Extra Effort.
One-Handed Lift would be 360 lbs,
Two-Handed Lift would be 1,440 lbs.

Snatch world record: 470 lbs.

For 202 points worth of powerlifting Johnny One-Shot the world record gets tripled (again, if Snatch is 8xBL).

Do you think a Squat would be safely modelled by 10xBL?
