Typically, the bands are used to force yourself to use proper form and help control the weights when lifting. It's a quick and easy way to make sure you don't hurt yourself by bouncing or snapping the weights. You can use them to create weight but like you said you can just add weights to it for a similar and easier result.

Hence, why I said you have to respect that people other than yourself can have opinions. There's a big difference between respecting that people can have their own opinions and respecting their opinions. The later, much like the right to free speech, means people can say stupid things and believe stupid things but you're allowed to call them stupid. Whereas the former, means they can say those stupid things or believe them and you have to "respect" those thing as just as valid as your opinions.

Well no, you don't have to respect peoples opinions. You have to respect that people other than yourself can have opinions. If you had to respect others opinions then everyone would have to "respect" the opinion that black people are less than human. Or that women don't deserve the right to do anything other than what a man tells them to do. This is an ongoing problem where people say you have to respect everyones opinion but what they really mean is that their opinion are the only one that matters and how dare you think or say anything against it.

Quenching in water is never a good idea for a blade and Japanese bladesmiths looked for many other ways to to temper their blades because they knew it wasn't good. Lack of resources and attempting to get metallurgical know how led to many of their techniques. Don't get me wrong they did amazing things with what they had but if they had had access to better iron/steel and modern quenching techniques and metallurgical sciences they would have done things differently. Tradition plays a extremely important part in Japanese culture but you really, really wouldn't want to use a sword made in the "traditional" manner with "traditional" materials. They were extremely brittle in no small part to poor quality iron/steel and tempering like is demonstrated in this^.

Lack of necessary oxygen. However, if we could increase the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere we would be able to see all kinds of neat things. Beings that rely on exoskeletons would be able to grow much, much, larger.
