I have been following your articles here (and your personal blog) for a long time, as I have found your writing more insightful than most. Thanks very much for your contributions.
Given that, this article strikes me as a hard left turn for your opinions on durability versus weight, and how that relates to performance (recognizing this is a loaded term that means something different to us all). I don’t necessarily disagree with anything you have written here, but I am left wondering what has changed/motivated you to reassess your own setup in this way? I have some guesses, but I am curious to understand your thought process. I personally have found the way you write about your own reasoning through this pastime the most enjoyable and relatable, and hope you might address that?
