As someone that makes their living in an unrelated field that used to be mechanically driven and is now forced by modern standards to be electronic BS - much of this garbage is political grandstanding more so than actual benefit
Yes, having the idle be able to adjust itself for minutia may in theory show a reduction/ gain on paper but the associated cost of equipment, problems, and cost for said equipment both for production and replacement parts are not worth it in the end
– so we all know that motorcycles existed for many decades on a simple set screw for idle and even the early throttlebody fuel injected units so- is there not a way to backdate mechanically (there probably is since I have seen Honda throttlebody‘s that look very very very very similar with a mechanical throttle set screw) so let’s stop messing around and figure out how to “retrospec this“.
