We found that a 1 stop pull was at the point where colour balances and contrast started to go funny. Though you could definately push beyond 1stop before the wierdness started.
By using the Push1/3 as normal , you would have an extra 1/3 pull if you f... uped the exposure.
As well testing one sheet or clip tests should be standard saftey practice when running E6film.
The technicians at good labs can make the call very precisely as they are doing this all the time.
We always called it *Drop* rather than Pull.
