I agree with all your comments, but to be fair, the website says "33 mm width on common 630 rims"

I am glad they said that--I had forgotten. Wish they would have called it a 1 1/4" tire as 33mm is closer to 32mm versus 35mm, but it's beyond whatever at this point. The tires look great, roll well, aren't heavy, are folding bead, and come at a great price. That's a ton of positives for a 27" tire in a world of 700C. I'll take it.
