Just because few others piss in swimming pool it is not justifiable to piss yourself also dilution due to large volume of swimming pool does not negate the effect. I hope you find analogy relevant.
I am sure I am going to be flamed by "enthusiasts " on this board
Oh man!! Getting on your moral high horse is easy. As you correctly guessed,the FFE I'm planning is NOT a catback. But if my car will pass the emission check without the catcon (which I'm told it'll do), I have no reason to believe I'm poisoning the world.

I understand your point, but if you want to make a difference, first get all the public transport buses into shape. One bus like this emits more pollutants in one minute than my car does in 1 day!!

To use your analogy, my pee will be certified as safe for the pool, but at the same time, there are elephants peeing huge quantities of stinking pee in the pool

If get paranoid like this, I should maybe go back to cycling
