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.
Carbon is used because it's lighter than a steel or aluminum bike. I have hear the same things as you about the stiffness. Maybe it only has to be stiff side to side not up and down? In any case, there are drawbacks. I get the strong sense that this bike is ridiculous and unreasonable, probably a fun concept, but I hope they prove me wrong and deliver $15k of value and it's not just another luxury "thing". :D
