You're overreacting to a ridiculous degree.
This is all about the facts. The evidence is as follows:
-hydro's and rim brakes with aluminum surface stop equally well in dry conditions.
-hydro's stop better in wet conditions.
Instead of facts, you come up with unfounded, catastrophic scenarios about rim brakes leading to death. It's totally preposterous. It's very funny, but still, I think we're all better off talking facts rather than fear mongering.
Adhere to the facts instead of resorting to bombastic, exaggerated catastrophizing and you will see the facts for yourself.
