One thought regarding GAP. I was looking for how Coros calculates it and came across this interesting post, which highlights how individualization matters: Individualization matters: the gradient adjusted pace model of Kilian Jornet - PickleTech
It would be quite interesting to have a similar model here as well, individualized based on the athlete history instead of just the ‘average’.

Be carefull! Coros uses Effort Pace, and this is an alternative to running power. It is ´more´ then GAP. It looks more related to Power then GAP and you should not compare to Intervals GAP (which uses the Strava model)
I have over 1 year of data and trying to make a comparison between GAP, Effort Pace and Power.
At this moment I think Coros uses Effort Pace in a very similar way as Power and they just try to avoid problems with trademarked algorithms from Garmin/Stryd.
