And this is why King won't warranty a hub that has been radial laced. (no judgement here)

Re:

Who says something like that? 3X is definitely stronger than radial.

Re: Re:

You should ignore anyone who says that.

From the 'bible' on wheel building from Jobst Brandt, page 67:

"Even though they transmit no torque, front wheels should not be spoked radially
because high radial stress can cause fatigue failure of their flanges. The spoke
holes of aluminum alloy hubs can break out causing wheel collapse. Flange
fatigue takes time, so these failures do not occur immediately. Some lightweight
hubs carry specific warnings against radial spoking."
