SFL PLE & THP 99?

After going deep on SFL vs. PLE and what actually is going on with them I am more confused.  Each one is described as must haves, elite, etc., etc. Check.  Got to see this organic 99 thp.  I understand the abilities are modifying the ‘velocity’ - not a physics expert but I think velocity in this context is speed plus angle of direction (aka the ball can only move in two directions horiz and vertical).  If it is a high throw more velocity in vertical, low throw more velocity in horizontal.  The force with which ball is thrown is what will give it speed in those directions. 

Now my question… the only power related stat for throwing (unless I missed something) is THP.  Everything else is accuracy related.  By adding ‘velocity’ with SFL & PLE you are adding ’force’ or essentially additional THP.  If 100 is the max, it would seem that SFL or PLE is kind of wasted if already at 99 for that extra 1.  I tried him with/without and I am not seeing any difference.  Unless the scale goes past 100… which is what I am wondering if anyone knows to be the case?

Sorry, left out talking about Allen here obvi…

its misleading. THP is how far your QB can throw the ball before you get the out of range. 

SFL and PLE add "velocity", meaning how hard they throw the ball. Basically it gets it from point A to point B quicker. 

Try with and without and you will notice a change in trajectory and the speed at which the ball travels through the air.

I think what TheChamp22 said is partially correct, where it does affect throw distance but THP also affects velocity.  If you try and 99 THP QB even a short throw has more velocity than an 80 THP QB.

However, it definitely does not cap at 99.  You can still tell that there is a boost even to 99 THP QBs when the ability activates.  

In theory, the ratings cap depends on the literal code of the game.  In the past things like the scoreboard in madden would cap at the number 256 because of the limitations of the binary coding within the game.  My assumption is that all ratings have a theoretical cap at that same number of 256 if you were to go into the game code but the only way to get above 99 would be to either adjust the code manually on PC or have abilities adjust the ratings.
