I think we have solved the torque v hp wars. HP was great when we only had one steam engine. It didn't really mean any thing but it was good sales pitch for the steam engine salesmen.
But once there were two steam engine builders what was the point in comparing them to a horse. The comparison needed to be made to the other engine so why not just use power for the comparison.
Power relied on torque and rpm, not horses. ;)
