Bowie,
You might be one of the smartest and talented people on this list. I understand a triangle shaped tire. What I do not understand is why you make that analogy.
If you were an attorney and arguing a case you would lose because you have not laid the foundation and helped the court understand why.
Just because you make a statement does not make it so.
I for one am truly interested in why you think these changes are bad.

You want me to give you a technical analysis of a triangular tire?
...I'd venture that most people on this list would know instinctively that it's a bad idea.
