    The fact that 3.5" floppies were self-sealing to make handling irrelevant (put your greasy fingers on any surface you fucking want) is another obvious advantage.

    There are more. Before putting something on blast, really run it through forwards and backwards. You might be surprised at how many pros/cons fall out of a genuine consideration.

    Sorry for the wording of my original post… it WAS needlessly adversarial.

      What an unnecessarily adversarial, and rude, reply. Maybe consider for more than 0.2 seconds if being an asshole is necessary.

        You’re right. I edited my post to make the words more accurately capture my intention. Thanks for the vibe check. I was out of line.
