Then they showed a lawn mower with a switch for the blades, enabling
the user to stop the blades when the thing runs over a sidewalk. Not a
bad safety feature... but when I cut my lawn years ago, I'd simply tilt
the thing back so the blade lifted away from the concrete.


An idiot make up that commercial. I have a Honda lawn mower that I
bought
in 1987 and it still runs like new. My 18 year old Honda mower has that
same feature. The blade brake feature is intended for you to be able to
walk away from the mower with out having to restart the motor when you
return. The side walk thing left me puzzled. Using the blade brake to
stop the blade every time you cross a side walk will wear out the blade
brake clutch in very short order.


They can't compete on quality, performance and price, so they started to
add useless features to try to give themselves a leg up on the
competition.
The tool world is being inundated with frickin' lasers everywhere.
Soon, they'll be selling carving/steak knives with lasers on them.
Such nonsense.
Just like suddenly everything has to be cordless. What's next? A
cordless flashlight?
