As I understand it the gearing on the M & H was that the first 4 forward gears were for field work and the 5th was for road travel. The 4th gear in an M or H is plenty fast enough for farming. Bear in mind you aren't buying a sports car that is going to have an equally spaced gearing for quick acceleration and fuel economy. The super series tractors were toughted as being 33% quicker. The gearing was uped along with the HP. You could get more work done in less time. The 9 speed was simply an attempt at moving quicker while pulling working farm equipment.
