When the Bottinelli et al. version of the Tully-Fisher relation is applied to derive distances, and when the observed parameters are used to predict the Malmquist bias at a given distance, the observed variation of the Hubble ratio as a function of kinematic distance is about 2.5 times the predicted variation.
