Hi Blackberry,
You have drawn some of the right conclusions but there is some work required still.
First of all, these are constant speed propellers. They change pitch as required. I am sure you got confused looking at that single F4U graph but it is a fact, you cannot compare CSP propellers at different advance ratios.
The advance ratio does not tell you a thing except in the context of that specific pitch angle. Now what you are doing is how that pitch stops are determined. A good propeller design will keep the polar at the flat area on the top as the pitch of the blade changes throughout the flight envelope.
This is what a complete CSP efficiency over advance ratio graph looks like:
The best aircraft/engine for this propeller will achieve Vmax at ~2.2 advance ratio and the propeller will have the stops at 15 degrees and 45 degrees.
That is the advantage of a CSP, you maintain peak efficiency over a wide range of velocities.
The F4U graph looks like it comparing airfoil selection at a specific velocity.
