It doesn't matter at all. It was never my point to begin with. My point is: both Fed and Murray have had their best results on hard and neither is leading the head to head vs Nadal on hard (their results on grass is 100% irrelevant to that point and Murray has an even worse head to head vs Nadal on grass anyway!). Both Fed and Murray have fared strikingly poorly vs Rafa on hard, given their overall records on that surface. Djokovic is the only player who has managed to do well vs Nadal on his best surface. That's a tribute to Nadal's talent DESPITE the injuries.
My point is despite all you say above, Murray is NOT a HC specialist. He has a game that translates well to grass.
That is like saying despite his Wimbledon titles, Nadal is a Clay specialist, since his resume his heavily clay loaded. That would be an insult to Nadal, who has a great game that translates very well onto grass courts, he has been outright the second best on the surface during his era, and his game translates exceptionally well onto slow HC also.
I don't see why you think that these top players are surface specialists. They have great games that can yield fantastic results on all surfaces, with Murray having less success on clay as the sole exception.
