I know this is probably a silly question but here it is anyway. PSI has the Olympian's nib as #6 is this meaning that it is a 6mm nib?

Really! A #8 is actually smaller in all dimensions than a #6? That's odd!
I've always believed that numbered nibs can vary a great deal from one manufacturer to another. I've had problems replacing one 6 with a 6 from a different manufacturer. It would be nice if there were standards but at this time I don't think there are.
