Keep them for masters. They're fun. If you don't like them, don't use them.
The problem with this is that if I don't like them and don't use one, while others do, I might get beat by people who wouldn't be able to beat me otherwise. Those of us that go to competitions like to race and I don't want to race against people with an advantage I don't have.
Maybe the solution is to allow them, but they don't count for records, top 10 times or even ribbons or medals at competitions. That way, the people who just want to go as "fast" as technology will allow can do that and those who just want to compete can do that.
