Acoustic drum magnificence vs Electronic robotic mindnumbing snoozefest no talent required button mashers boom chic boom.
Its all subjective no.
For example replacing the drums on TB3 and TSODE with say Mr Phillips and his Tamas would to me have no detrimental effect on the overall end product.
If the same thing but in reverse was done to say FMO or Crises what would we have?
But still I love L&S it is what it is ,dismissed on early listens as pap but to the penitent listener its like discovering a 14th century under piece on a 17th century masterpiece .  
I don't think any of us here really expect Mike to regress back to any group form (wipes a solitary tear from eye) with a "real"
drummer any time soon but thats ok by me really.
Peeps can bag it till the cows come home but i for one am happy to live in a universe where light and shade exists as it stands.
My preference for Real Drums not withstanding.

Which martial art, Milamber? There's a story in my collection you'll probably like, then - it's actually called "Martial Arts". (The collection also contains one called "Venerean Arts" - that's all about adapting martial arts principles to make someone fall in love with you!;)
