these tabs are the dumbest things yet. It is soooo annoying! I'm not a racer, but when I take off a wheel I like to lean down with one hand, flip the quick release and pull the bike off the wheel. I bugs me because if I want to spin the qiuck release, I would just use wing nuts!

the question I have is, if someone is too dumb to close the quick release, and they spin the quick release to take the wheel off, what do they do when they reinstall the wheel? do they just put the wheel on and leave it loose? which is no safer than without the tabs. or do the spin the quick release until tight?
