Event with the least attention-feet?

Don't get me wrong, I love square-1. It's just the next one I suspect the WCA will remove . The sq1 is the only official puzzle that becomes bumpy when you scramble it, and changes it's shape when solved. Magics were removed because they "use up time at competitions", but they also change shape as they are solved in a non-3x3-like way. MBLD, 6x6 and 7x7 also use up time at competitions, pyra and mega are not cube shaped, clock is not a twisty puzzle. Thresholds will be reduced until 3x3 is the only event, not unlike the '82 world championships.

That makes absolutely no sense at all and I mean that in the nicest way possible.

Yeah, and at the same time they're going to adopt Owen notation :fp

Owen notation is a really great idea for memorizing algorithms.

Yeah, sure, and to match 1982 WC even more, Worlds will stop being open and only national champions will be invited. And Dayan cubes will get banned, as well as all other non-Rubik brands, and we will be forced to use cubes provided by the organizers. And we will have to stop using Internet for announcing comps, discussiong them and registering to them (and of course no more live results) because that kind of facility didn't exist in 1982 yet.

Seriously, don't you think you're just saying complete nonsense ?

Edit: And I'm not even mentioning the fact that if the WCA was crazy enough to actually do what you predict, it would be a serious reason for creating a new association which would take care of all those nice removed events.
