ha, maybe today, but back in the days there was a lot of pioneering in design.. the early Macchi fighters and designs suffered from the torque snap rolls for design flaws, and it's not until the Macchi 202 that they introduced a wing longer than the other to compensate for it (and still wasn't enough..).
