in my case what's limited is my cardio strength.
It's your second point that is important - you need to work on cardiovascular fitness to improve your cycling, there's no way around that and you've identified it as your limiter. You should find that the feelings you describe in your first quote can be improved with training (riding). I think it's pretty common to start riding with a lower cadence, but with time riding at a higher cadence will likely become easier and more natural/comfortable.

Yessir. So you're sure there's nothing the mods can do to this guy? You know like the neighborhood association throwing out the guy that plays window-busting rap on his stereo 24/7?

That is always beneficial.

Are we allowed to poke at trolls with sharpened sticks?
