Don't mix function, need and money together. Many people buy Campagnolo because it's Campagnolo. They don't need Super Record, rather, they want Super Record and have the money to spend. My suggestion for a high zoot Campy touring group is for them to go after people who have the money and want the "best" in history, appearance, function. It's not just about putting together low enough gear ratios. I'm suggesting they build the gruppo equivalent of Leica cameras. Leica makes excellent cameras and lenses, but sold as much as jewelry and fashion accessories as photographic tools. Same as shooting sports where folks buy big bucks shotguns when a Remington 870 provides the same functionality for much less money.
Now, the bean counters at Campy World HQ probably know what they're doing by not making such a touring group but I can dream can't I?
