for me maybe the most interesting part?

"Quite interestingly, there’s no damper at all. Cane Creek says it actually built parallel fleets of development mules – one with a conventional oil damper and one without – but its test riders supposedly couldn’t tell the difference between them in terms of ride performance so it was decided to go without to save both weight and complexity."

from the escape collective article.

why would damping not be necessary? some kind of internal friction giving them some friction damping? travel so short the bouncing isn't too bothersome?
