I think the problem is that a lot of the survey teams nowadays are not 'competent' in that sense. All you really need to do is look at Vilonia, or Chickasha, or Goldsby, or even Fairdale/Rochelle - these are arguably comparable structural and even contextual damage, that would have almost certainly received F5 ratings in the past. Additionally, I think almost all of these events were expected to receive EF5 ratings - but didn't, for reasons varying in validity. I completely agree that Xenia deserves its rating and exhibits textbook E/F5 damage. But I really wouldn't put anything past survey teams this day and age.any competent survey team would rate it an EF-5.
