Sorry, I wasn't trying to say your advice was bad! You're totally correct in that redishing the wheel isn't a big deal. I mean that the problem here lies in the dropout, and in my mind, redishing the wheel (which is currently straight and true, hence, correct and good) to counteract this just strikes me as completely counterintuitive. I've got a bit of a pedants mindset for stuff like this though, it's just me.
Tbh I would rather file the dropout, as it would solve the issue for good. Slightly worried about fucking it up tho.
I've been riding this frame for 6 months though, and although it's slightly out of alignment, its not put a foot wrong otherwise. Ask @hoops, he fixed his own BMC and it's been fine. My friend Alex is on a Supersix with a replaced chainstay, and he puts that through some horrendous stuff. Personally I don't have an issue with repaired CF.

I don't understand your criteria for defining something as wrongheaded. Re-dishing a wheel takes a couple of minutes, is trivial, non destructive and nonperminant. Yet riding a reparied CF frame is OK?
