If you tell them a Thin hone is better they will believe it they will latch onto and then continue the myth thinking it was the hone,, and not realizing it was actually their new found honing skills (Practice)
A thin hone might very well work better for "YOU" nobody is disputing that. but when you say it is better BECAUSE of some geometric principle that you tried to illustrate then yes I say that is incorrect
ps: Honestly I don't care if you are tired of repeating yourself you can stop any time you chose
pps: Think about this just one second I own a full set of cutdowns I hone a lot of razors, many of those razors are Older Restored Sheffield's the exact razor that are prone to these issues.. Don't you think if it were actually easier and faster and better I would be using it ??? Seriously ???? I will take any advantage that I possibly can..
This is simply not an advantage ...
