Kidneys-
Well it was certainly novel in the field of bikepacking specific saddlebags, which is why when everyone else was still trying to figure out how to get their bags tight and stable, Scott was the one who was designing, prototyping, and testing a specific support, for the specific purpose of eliminating movement.
I didn't see anyone else doing it until porcelain rocket had reached version 3.The carradice bagman support uses a clunky attachment, and was really just trying to make something that had many problems work a bit better, and still didn't stop the movement of the bag.
I'm just of the opinion that people deserve more credit for their ideas when other people use them.

Something that Scott at porcelain rocket already did years ago and which several other companies have also copied.
It always feels like a bit of a slap in the face to the person who actually HAS come up with something new and original when the people who then take those ideas for their own products post pictures without giving the slightest bit of credit to the person they clearly got the idea from.
