Counter arguments (not from me, I'm still open but erring towards the anti camp from this thread!)
1. Claim that they are much bulkier and sturdier, pins are thicker, thus in fact less prone to stretch.
2. For same reason as above, less likely to fail.
Why is it believed they wear more quickly?

been there, done that and they do. not for fashion but when i ran a cf fs mtb ss.
that's what i thought, but mickle disagrees<br /><br /><br />
Not sure I understand why thicker pins would wear less, it' a material strength thing, isn't it? If anything I would expect more stretch because there are more pins, 4x0.2mm > 2x0.2mm.
