Lol. It's true though. For all the facepalms and 'omg can't believe they only have one method of stopping their bike, lol, n00bs' etc, no-one ever makes the obvious point that it's PRECISELY as dangerous as riding brakeless/fixed.
I mean I understand that this isn't really anything to do with logic, per se - I know that pointing this stuff out is a way in which members of this tribe identify outsiders, but fucking hell. I'm just not sure where the payoff is, if there's a specific point at which we're all meant to high five and point sneeringly at a calliper or somethign.
