I'm surprised by the level of passion invested in this argument, as if the degree of "shifting excellence" (however that is defined) matters now. Aren't we interested in these pieces due to their historical importance first? Or am I on the wrong list again? (I hate when that happens!)

Personally, my priorities after historical importance go something like 2. coolness 3. beauty 4. durability and toughness ...with shifting excellence somewhere down below those.

Would any of us choose a Cyclone over a Nivex or 543 if offered the choice?
