I could type out pages and pages refuting every single thing you just said. But I won't. I'll just give ya the cliffs notes version
Right, I'm sure. But that's not the discussion, is it?
And, I'd ask you to grant that these two points really are inarguable:
A lot of that is entirely personal preference, or viewed from a standpoint that favors only one quality of the material.
And,
So if we were to do this study we'd have to carefully define what's a failure and what's a success. ... When 10 years after the introduction of a new technology, at least 20-30% of shooters own/use at least one gun that incorporates that aspect, it must reasonably be considered a success.
Which sort of brings me back around to this:
Because shooters tend to be a conservative (... let's be honest, a reactionary) lot.
