I would allow it simply because you end up "casting" an augmented spell.

If I say I am casting my Augmented spell, the alchemical item is now a required Material Component, no different than Casting a Reach boosted Metamagic Spell now has a Required +1 Spell level. I think of it along the lines of Metamagics & it looks more clear to me.

Black Market...I thought everyone knew about John Shieldtower the Gnome scientist.

do you really want the low level 2-h fighter baddie to down a Potion of Shield, getting his huge Armor AC & a Shield bonus without actually using a Shield?

Lets look at similarities:
Haste Grants an extra attack due to an increase in your speed & action of movement (despite weapon)

Blessing of Fervor can grant an Extra attack do to an increase of Speed & Action (similar to Haste, also despite weapon)

Speed property allows you an extra attack with a weapon do to the weapon being faster & increasing your action.

By the logic you're using 2 speed weapons are 2 separate sources that are not "similar". By that Logic does that mean Haste & Fervor should stack? they are more likely considered separate sources than 2 weapons of Speed.

If the Answer to this question is yes...congratulations you just made a house rule that ignores RAW enjoy it, have fun, More power to you.

Each of these effects is similar in that it manipulates speed in a localized area to give you an extra attack, this seems to be a logical, balanced way of interpreting the rules as they stand.

The problem is you're looking for the books to be able to address EVERY possible outcome in a game where a player's cleverness is a general benefit, however, Paizo cannot address every possible reading of people in every possible way unless you want 2000 page books...those are lawbooks not Core rulebooks for a role playing game, besides the rules in the books are Guidelines, they are not hard ^ fast rules, a GM is welcomed to change anything he e or she wants.

You are literally quibbling over something that is in the purview of a GM to say "No, get over it, lets move the game along". It is unreasonable to expect Paizo to answer every possible interpretation if the rules they have written because of a couple of words here or there.

The rules are meant o be handled in a reasonable manner that makes sense, if a particular reading of the rules doesn't make reasonable sense, then perhaps you're reading the rule wrong.

For those who have to keep intricate details about where everything is...Does your GM have an assigned amount of "storage" for a backpack? for instance does a basic backpack have 1 main pouch & 5 smaller side pouches fitted along the sides? or does he expect you to create your own backpack design? In my opinion this would make a huge factor in determining total storage capacity & where things are stored for combat purposes.
