Your sarcasm is noted. I carry a Road Morph and CO2. My primary reason for using CO2 is because my flats only seem to occur when it's 90° with 80% humidity and I'm nowhere near shade. Last summer I flatted at the apex of a bridge and even with CO2 I was drained. With the Road Morph I would have probably had heat stroke. With a true mini-pump I can't imagine the outcome.
