Maybe I know too much about how sausage is made to judge a product just by looking inside it.
Imagine we had two CF bikes. Both were the same weight, both provided 20,000 miles of riding pleasure, blindfolded riders couldn't tell them apart, but one had inner wrinkles and voids and the other didn't, would the wrinkles and voids matter?
That's kind of where I lean on this issue as well. I'm sure BMC doesn't expect too many customer complaints about what the inside of their frame looked like when the customer cut the damned thing open.
