can you explain in some detail what you accomplish in these two minutes and why you choose an interval of one a year?

It's an average. I'm getting about two bike-years per set of bearings. Takes about two minutes to run a couple of dozen bearings through the calipers and select for best fit, and put the rejects in an envelope for return.
It doesn't really warrant much detail. Or condescension.

Given your insistence that certain things simply must be used, I'd be a little more guarded with analogies to sprinkling fairy dust.

Given I'm selecting for four slightly variable diameters, probability doesn't require a barrel of bearings. Or any more than a couple of dozen. The waste of money is a non-starter, because those I don't use I return, at no cost.
Still, though. Indulge me, genius. If I'm doing it wrong and it doesn't work, how come it works?

LBS has installed cranks and each turn results in a creak. Nothing has helped... Of course, they have decided to actually press campy BB30 adapter to Specialized nylon adapters. Which isnt the best way to do it in the first place.
I have bough a Praxis BB and it is just dead silent. Also it is a amazing piece of engineering. I am really impressed by the idea and personally I think this is the best of both worlds.
