Are two wheels better than 4?

OK - so just so i'm not confused :

Stealing is wrong except when it's stealing from rich people. And if someone steals your £600 wheelset, then that's pretty funny because you're stupid enough to pay for them, and frankly, you deserve it.

I agree - I'm sure there'd be righteous anger if a just imported NJS frame dripping with bling and plastic clown wheels got nicked, but that's the bike equivalent of this guys Bentley. Ther amount of money might be different but the motivation's the same.
