Currently, almost all ORFs are considered intact if their size is within -30/+30 range of their subtype ORF's length.
But, as we know, some ORFs, such as env have a larger variance, and some, such as tat do not have any variance at all.

Therefore it is better to base the cut-offs on empirical data, rather than to stick to arbitrary measures.
