I think the reduced cornering clearence is more perceived than actual. I've found that I take familiar corners at the same speeds I did before I had the floorboards. They don't drag any earlier than the pegs did but I notice it more.

Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
