Congrats on the NANLHT(Not another long haul trucker) attitude

The question is, are the welds any less strong and functional? I don't have any reason to think so. I suspect the difference is akin to my reaction to someone's post over in the road forum - they had a microscopic scratch on their bike, and were getting all bent out of shape about it. From my perspective - why in the world would you possibly care? I cannot fathom a mindset that turns a tool into a fashion statement or values appearance over function
