plz no!!!
i want to have traditional technic motors
they can be modified to use with liftarms
but let them exist as motors not as superhero-multi-purpouse-compact-module

hmm... it means that ppl should buy more pieces
but the in second hand
i supose liftarms are cheaper to produce
1. they need less material
2. the are simplier to mould
when i look at new technic models from TLC
i can bet that technic bricks are going away
ie TLC did new valves and new pistons
now they will project new motors
(i hope with my idea of new electrics :) !!!

(i remind i gave this idea for public)
on the pictures you can see the idea of new connector
which will no longer need 2x2 electric brick
the other advantage is that we will have
an ability to put wire through hole or even axle-hole
which is impossible to do now
then whole technic will appear as liftarm based :)))
