I know that in electrical engineering, there exist good reasons. But doubt whether the reason for loobeans is to be contrarian. I rather suspect that if you look deeply into the architectural details of Nock, you will find a good reason for loobeans, too. In this sense, I suspect that loobeans are "contrarian" is rather a welcome side-effect than raison d'ĂȘtre.

This entire project is built from basically 95% contrarianism.

It is contrarianism, pure and simple.
