We do all this simply to ensure peak performance or in engineering terms - efficiency. Another thing we do is make the drive train as modular as possible. Therefore, if we do make a mistake, we have a chance to correct ourselves during the season without any major re-designs.
Haha, the famous (or infamous) "brute force."

Psssst, people......guess what....it works.
