Oh yeah, well like the universal hanger is a easy way of SRAM sneaking proprietary components, like "we've made this open source hanger that makes a lot of sense, the parts are cheap and who ever wants to manufacture a bike with it can. Oh, it also fits any mech... Ffwd 3 years ... Oh and now we're going to make mechs that have an integrated hanger but exactly fit your bike, and no other brand can do this"
True, but the MTB world isn't quite as susceptible to the the single manufacturer eco system as the road market is, but then again SRAM can't really touch the Tiagras and Clarises of this world.
