It it's all about that x. If you have x=0 and low swr that's great. However all that can be and you might be shooting straight up to the clouds or straight down the mast to the ground. I think it's a balance between x and take off. 5/8 should require a groundplane. Have you a ground plane? And if you put it over a groundplane it will prob mess up the rest of the numbers.

Just my thoughts
