Looking at my comment here: http://forums.sjgames.com/showpost.p...7&postcount=61 and some of the follow-ups, this seems to come out of nowhere. It may be that I simply made a mistake and it should be 8x, or meant to say "unpenalized JT up to 4xBL" but even so, for a person of average weight only throwing someone of 80lbs is just EASY.

Edit: In this post I mention "at normal human densities" a limit of 3-4x the Judoka's ST, which may be a BL-->ST swap error.
