True, but this is Quintana's point: allowing any technology that comes along to play a part might eventually make cycling a 'shadow of its former spectacle'.
All I am saying is that you CAN pick and choose, and there's nothing wrong or misguided about Quintana suggesting that cycling could be better off without power-meters; that just because something is advanced it does not follow that it must offer benefits.

I think it's also an example of a sport that has interfered far too much and the tinkering has left it a shadow of its former spectacle. It's also an example of a sport whether money talks big so the richer teams had much, much better cars that the smaller ones. In cycling at least with sponsorship from various big bike manufacturers tech-wise it should be an more even playing field, which is something F1 sought to achieve with its tinkering.
