I notice that the new valves and cylinders are more "technicified",
i.e., they no longer have stud connection, but rather a connection via
technic pins/axles. I think that this appears to be a good idea, it
makes them easier to incorporate in technic models, and also leaves
them with a smaller footprint.
However, I would like to ask if the elements are different in any
other way. I.e., do they incorporate any new technology other other
new elements?

| (...) Yes, I agree. However, I'd rather see them with axle holes instead of smooth holes. Regardless, I'm amazed and very happy to see this new set! -TJ (21 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)
