If efficiency, efficiency and efficiency was so dear to German über-designers, two questions:
-why did they keep the utterly inefficient Maybach petrol engines for tanks?
-why was German large surface warship steam machinery noted for its poor efficiency???
Which questions, if true, show only that even über-designers can have "off" days.
