Dumb Unnecessary modifications

[1967 Ford]

There was a thread on here about dumb reproduction parts.

The dumbest most unnecessary thing I have seen in the current MAC's "A"
catalog is the $89.75 oil drain kit. You screw in a special fitting instead of the oil pan drain plug and when you want to change oil you remove the cap on this special plug and insert a drain hose. Now maybe I am off base here but how is that any better than removing the old fashion drain plug, draining the oil into a pan and putting the drain plug back???
