I notice that a lot of the time when people want to justify their position that they resort to hypothetical scenarios. The problem with that is that hypothetical scenarios are imaginary, they're a daydream. Everyone can imagine themselves a story where all their beliefs are true and all their opponents look dumb. Real world results are the only thing that matters.

Having an extra port, just to meet a government regulation just causes extra expense. I agree we need good regulation. It's just not needed in this case because the industry has already adopted a standard.

Where's the evidence cellulose is harmful? If I bake my own bread with wholemeal flour it will contain plenty of cellulose. If I stop eating every food because some website or magazine says it's harmful, I'll die from starvation.

1. Food Babe is a widely discredited crackpot best known for her crusade against “yoga mat chemicals” in bread, and for claiming air travel is hazardous because of the “increased” air pressure…
2. Cellulose is not the same as sawdust.

Another hypothetical: just imagine if no-one ever thought "what if..."
SilverSolder:

"Humans cannot digest cellulose. It has no caloric value. The food industry tricks consumers who eat foods with a high cellulose content to feel full physically and psychologically without having consumed many calories."

Hmm, doesn't seem such a bad idea!!
