Mike is right - in just the same way as
There is nothing magical, mystical or fantastic anymore about
using only the wind, waves and currents for propulsion in
sail-boat races.
Really? Why then do Americas Cup competitors not use engines?
There is nothing magical, mystical or fantastic anymore about
using only a hook and line to catch fish.
Really? Then why do fishing enthusiasts not all use nets
(or explosives)?
There is nothing magical, mystical or fantastic anymore about
using only muscle power in high-jump competitions.
Really? Then why do they not use springs or springboards?
I could go on :-)
Sometimes, even in competition, we do things the hard way
for their own sake.
