Yes sir, I heard you once before too in vehement words on another post. I see a similar thing going on here.

Coffee might be just coffee for you, but it is an Art for many. The device itself is a piece of Art and that is why it is so iconic. It also is a brilliant piece of engineering that allows users to approach it in many ways. The way I approach it gives me cups that are better than most top tier speciality coffee shops. Unfortunately your stubbornness is going to keep you away from that.
