buzz. incorrect.

Some benefits are, of course, worth more than others, and these factor differently depending on the person. This should be pretty obvious. The world would be a very different place if all benefits and dis-benefits were weighed equally all the time. I'd be embarrassed to write what you just wrote in the quoted line.

What's your deal anyway? You argue like a luddite but you apparently own a '13 Specialized Venge Expert. I mean, pretty sweet bike for someone all up in the grill about people choosing brake lever shifters over downtube...



Ah well... maybe just arguing for entertainment. Everyone does that every once in a while...
