Cons:
- This effectively decreases the track width (but not the rid-able width which won't change)
This seems like an obvious improvement to me. Is it just a matter of cost, or is there vocal opposition? People often like to cling tradition for irrational reasons... and I can imagine chirping like "but that would make all our track records irrelevant."
