Everything I've read emphasizes a low stroke count, but I've yet to see a number. What is the optimal number of stroke counts for 25yd. freestyle?
Does a person's height influence someone's stroke count? Gender? Strength? Fitness? Endurance?
I've got my own theories, but would love to anyone else's.

You're absolutely right . . . my point is that by working on reducing your stroke count in practice, you're improving your form/efficiency, which is what I think we all agree is a key ingredient to success, along with turnover and strength for sprints and endurance and strenght for longer races.
