It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

so if one chain breaks can you change gears and keep going? Is that what they are talking about with redundancy?
I think so re redundancy – but the primary benefit is not having fragile and high-maintenance derailleurs, as I understand it.
I rode a two speed kickback bicycle similar (operationally) to this for about a decade. It was the lowest maintenance bike I've ever owned, but the gearing was inside the rear hub and it only had a single chain. I can't imagine that the mechanism being outside improves that.
