Of course, I'm not against the studless beams. I'm against replacement
of studded beams with studless in new Technic sets, rendering them
incompatible with System. Technic bricks/plates were good 'compatibility
layer'.

Let me see - I'm against replacement of Technic Bricks. So, these parts
are replacements:
1x2 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/43857 - from 2002
1x3 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/32523 - from 2000
1x5 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/32316 - from 2000
1x7 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/x150 - from 2001
1x9 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/120 - from 2001
1x11 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/32525 - from 2001
1x15 - http://www.peeron.com/inv/parts/32278 - from 2000
Wouldn't call this 'years'.
