I guess the logic follows if you're riding brakeless, you don't want your drivetrain to fail, so you go with the strongest out there.
but I agree that you would have to be a monster to break something. something my 155 lbs ain't.
so why "i rode 3/32" brakeless"? and not "i ride 3/32" brakeless"?
'cause i have rebuilt knees and the cool factor isn't worth the risk of destroying them again.
i rarely use the brake, but i like having the option.
