So would it be true to say that you don't like Technic gears?  Aren't they (by

expressing some subtle feelings and so are rather hard for me ;-)

I speak only one language, so please don't feel I'm in any way attempting to
pick apart your English postings.  In fact, I am quite sincerely just trying to
make sure that I understand exactly what it is that you are trying to express.
It's o.k. for people to disagree and debate things (in a civil manner) but it's
sometimes not needed when, in fact, the two people agreed all along.  Which is
what I think may have happened in this case.  :)

I just think of studded beams/holed plates as a 'compatibility layer'
between System and Technic. My old 744 set shows how great could be the
System brick with some Technic elements and some of the new Designer
sets look nice too, but I don't have them.

If you are a fan of the old Universal Building Sets (as I am) then you will very
much enjoy any of the new Designer sets, especially the advanced ones like the
Air Blazers.  I hope you are get some of them someday.

Your list leaves me with another question and I just want to ask for
clarification of your feelings again.  Based on the examples above I would take
it to mean that you are primarily against the full-width studless beams.  Is
that true?

I'm against Technic sets which contain _ONLY_ such parts and not the
traditional Technic bricks.

I think this is the core of this thread, and I agree with you.

If not, have
you at least written to the company expressing your support for the reissuing of
Technic models that use LOTS of studded Technic bricks?

I still have to find out the way how to write them, as my country is not
getting the support. Should I use that 'My Opinion' button on their web?

Most certainly!  :)

Best regards,
Allan B.
