I'm not sure what that means but , hey, I have nothing against shavettes. If that's the way you want to go have at it. It's your face. Do whatever you want with it.
What I'M saying is this. Cock roaches, horseshoe crabs, straight razors. They have all been basically the same for an eternity. Why? Because it works and it works well. CDs were billed as "better than vinyl." I have 78s from the 1890s that still play. Do you think that CD will still play in over 100 years from now? Most of them don't even still work
now.
Yeah, shavettes are easier I guess. Know what's easier than that? Growing a beard. Everything has ups and downs, pluses and minuses. For me, what most people would call a minus about straights I consider pluses.
My son loves to tell how NASA spent lots of time and money trying to make a pen that would write in space...
The Russians used a pencil.
