Quantity does not necessarily make you right. Could be you just made 150 segs completely wrong ignoring the evidence? And I really do not buy this "stress" arguement at all. If you are going to increase the size of the breast plates you should do so in the correct proportion IMHO. The breast plates on the picture you posted are simply enormous, and as a result the USG and LSG plates look pathetically small. I guess it comes down to re-enactment versus attempted reconstruction at the end of the day.
