I'm only pointing out that you do this thing where you say "I prefer X," and think that's equivalent to "Shimano would find it in their best interest to make X," presumably because they would then make large bundles of cash by doing so. When it's abundantly clear that Shimano has made a different calculation, and they're probably in a better position to know than you, Some Random Guy.
