I've never had a problem with it either. But I can see a reasonable issue with it. Hell, I wasn't even suggesting necessarily that it was an improvement to begin with, I was simply wondering WHY it had not been done. Seems mostly tradition. Which is fine, but just because we don't like the 'aint broke don' fix it' manta, doesn't mean we are 'trashing you.'
Hell Blicks probably didn't even mean it specific to this topic.
Basically, you're being really defensive for no reason.
The tools are not broken and the system isn't broken.
It just has a high learning curve, that's all.
The learning curve is actually not that high, but if you don't have the right tools and decent quality parts, then it can be a problem.
With that said, I like the tomicog/velosolo solution of using the disc brake side of 6-bolt disc hubs for just riding around town.
