The Path of Most Resistance

But is resting for a short period of time not dependant on the actual load used?

If one trains in the 5-6 rep range than you get maximum muscle fibre recruitment even if your rest 2-3 minutes.

Training with loads of 8-15 reps taxes you differently, therefore short rest period will allow to maximise the Size Principle Recruitment Pattern ?

One of the by-products of increased strength is recovery time, not only between workouts, but between sets.
