Re: sidewalls - the finish on ceramic rims take longer to wear off than non-ceramic, though the downside is that ceramic rims are known to wear down brake pads quicker.
Also, after switching jobs (and doubling my commute distance), i pretty much stopped riding to work.

I like to live vicariously through other people on the internet, and I like seeing modern campy on old frames.

Yeah I thought it was pretty funny coming from C&V since it's pretty civil over there. I'm with the camp that he should at least re-decal since that's what marks it as something unique. No hate, just an opinion from another classic carbon owner, cuz if I removed my decals it'd look almost identical:
