they are actually spam's strongest spokes
Highest specific strength in the butted section. Other spokes are stronger because they more than make up for the lower specific strength by having a larger cross section. As they are all made from the same wire, the specific strength at the bend, which is where spokes actually break, is likely to be the same for all the spokes.

Why exactly do you want bladed spokes?
