It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

An interesting idea and a fascinating feat of engineering for sure

... but why? This seems like a solution in search of a problem. I've really noticed this a lot in the bicycle world - companies that keep trying to reinvent components and mechanisms that have been perfected decades ago.

In the real world there's nothing perfect about a chain and derailleur.
