I’ve gotta admit, I’m slightly intrigued by this:

I recall trying something like that FVC test with a 5 liter wine jug a few years ago... no 200 ml markings... and was able to expel all of that.

If 3 to 5 liters is "average" what is good or excellent?

I just tried the slow exhaling test. I got 69 seconds on my second try.
