Well, the guy is in the trenches. He gets to see and fix these things and also deal with mavic(not fun, IMHO)..Proprietary 'stuff' screams 'planned obsolescence, regardless of maker. It's a shame when those really nice hubs become pen holders cuz the manufacturer no longer supports the wheelouttaboxes..

I like this guy
