Sorry, still not getting it.
"they reflect a lack of understanding on the part of the authors"
Without completely dispensing with modesty, I'm fairly smart. I have some experience with chassis design, built some primitive engines, have a narrow history of motorcycle racing, some basic physics, civil law.
Until I began visiting here, I would never have presumed to impose an opinion - my presumption being that the rules were the result of much painstaking work by people better than myself.
Some of what I've read here matches the Mississippi State legislature "deciding" that Pi = 4.
I'll just sum this up, and then stop.
What qualifies them to make this stuff up?
