It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Call me old-fashioned but electronic stuff has more points of failure, and seems harder to service?
Should be easier to service. No adjusting cable tension, routing new cables through frames... Just calibrate through the app and go for a perfect shift everytime.
I have 105 mechanical and can't fault it really. I have ridden a SRAM electronic shift and it was very nice. But essential, no.
I guess I'm old fashioned too, but it's pretty funny when you're out on a ride and your mate has to stop because their derailleur ran out of batteries.
I've ever had a shifter cable fail on me in 20 years of riding, including stints as a bike courier and two continental circumnavigations.
