I seem to recall reading that ZO can actually accomplish a near constant-speed-brick-wall pull, but this approach was abandoned due to skier complaints, and hence the myriad of choices about the "type of pull" the skier wants. Is this true?
If the tech exists to give a constant-speed pull to every skier but this tech was abandoned, its a shame, IMO. If the ZO mapping is intentionally building in speed-variation tolerances that don't need to be there to give the pull a "better feel" based on "skier preference," then this is heart of the fairness problem, IMO. Every competitor ought to get a no-mercy, constant-speed brick wall if the tech exists to give this type of pull.
