Anyone who's seen what Jobst Brandt had to say about the pedal/crank interface would have to agree that what we have is pretty suboptimal... Washers make it a tiny bit better.
It's a shame more folks didn't see and agree with Jobst's fix - a fat 45 degree chamfer on the pedal hole, and in the absence of pedal spindles to suit, split collets.
