Nicely put!
I'm the same. I have thick legs, and they don't appreciate being spun about at high speed.
Perhaps someone has proved that faster is more efficient in a racing setting, but if we're not competing we don't give a stuff about that. We do what works for us. Anyway, who's to say that all those extra rotations don't wear out the body in other ways?
