The NACA 16 series was supposed be low drag at high speed and designed for the very high transonic realm. It was a real disappointment to the NACA.
Go back a few pages and re-read it. It will confirm there was no difference at speed and the Clark Y was actually better overall.

This is my comprehension. Criticism welcome.
