"No comparison"? You can't compare the vintage side-pulls on my bikes to modern brakes? Mine stop the bike when I want them to stop the bike. Don't modern brakes do that?
"Extreme reliability of modern tech"?
My perfectly functioning bikes are 35-50 years old, all of them. How can they get "more reliable"?
