So which is bad? Being simple or being complex? Who has the most convincing argument?
I hoped to demonstrate in the first post that neither is a convincing argument but an ad hominem attack. And to PROVE to John that he has not put forth a logical argument but is engaging in personal attacks.
Does my post mirror John's? You bet, that's the point.
Human Car, please specify the argument I have made that is not logical. Your writing doesn't so indicate.
To spell that out without the nasties:

What's the logical "proof" for your statement?
Providing a shoulder on a high speed road is simple, so you are against shoulders simply because they are simple?
