Wait wait wait. I think you forgot a few factors.

Chestnuts, plates, throwing axes, and sling pebbles can be fired very fast but due to the damage taking cooldown you can't really get the whole DPS. You had to hit a different target with each successie shot which is practically impossible.

Spears can be fired very fast but then they don't deal the whole damage, similar to bows. If you aim a bit longer, the spear will make more damage.

In the Conclusion you corrected that but the dps values itself are unusable and can only be seen as some fun stats. Hobbit slingers can beat mithril crossbowmen!
