Big assumption in there.
That I'm making them, haven't said such a thing at all.
What the hell is wanted?
We've proposed patches, but as pointed out it will be hard to affix in a way that respects the technical qualities of courier bags.
What is the point we're trying to fulfil? Just to make patches? Well, anyone who wants to feel free.
Or is it to have something that most people could affix to their bag or bike in some way that could be seen by others?
In which case is a patch the best way?
Why not a distinctive bottle opener with a loop to easily hook through bag straps or saddle rails?
If you want to make something for the hell of it, I'm out.
If you want to make something that is distinctive, high quality and lots of people want and are willing to pay for, then I'm in.
But so far I see no proof that patches fulfil that definition.
