Completely false. What I'm saying is that aero isn't the complete only thing, but neither is the rider. Same rider with different bikes may very well have different performance on each individual bike. At the very worse, an aero frame shouldn't slow him down on the flats.
That being said, aside from my great pleasure of crushing things, I ride 52's and 51 slopings so perhaps my feel of frames is different from yours. They all feel stiff as hell

Decided to interpret?
They wrote the rule in the first place!
I almost feel like they Benny Hill music needs to be playing whenever they are mentioned.
I am just happy to see that BMC broke away from their double-triangle curse finally, which was frankly worse than Pinarello's curves (really puzzles me how the Impec won all those design awards with a completely superfluous design).
Bike looks pretty clean. Now if only they could fix the "T" shaped top tube.

This new BMC looks nice.
But that under the BB brake leaves a lot to be desired. I'd keep the same V brake and put it on the seat stays if I was designing this...

Ah... well there's your problem

You've got a thing for crushing haven't you...
