Ah yes, but in this case it does make a difference.  Seeing this message I
at first thought the roughness was 0.03308, not 0.3308.  If it were then
both highlights would have been very similar in both intensity and size.
This texture actually has a relatively large specular and smaller phong
highlight.
I often use the both of them together.  Anyway, I figure you might have also
thought the two were close in appearance so I wanted to speak up here.
