a far better test than that would be
take the closest observable double star pair that can be seen at the edge of the Prostar and try to observe it in the other binocs. Starting with the double placed on the extreme edge, slowly move it inward until it can be seen and record the position. Try Alya, theta Serpens; an even magnitude 22" pair. I saw theta Serpens all the way out at 90%+ of fov in the Prostar.
FWIW, there are some 8x binoculars I've tested in which I cannot even see theta Serpens beyond dead center.
