X-14: Killer Cheese
Why all the hate for the razors? Each extra blade represents an achievement in metalworking and logistics (how the hell are you supposed to fit that much metal in a tight enough space to shave with?). And it gives one more small portion of customers a reason to celebrate their shaving time being cut in half (the amount of razors it takes to make a second shave redundant varying for each group of people).
Sure it's not as dramatic as the advertisements suggest, but it's the difference between being on time and being 2 minutes late, or, god forbid, missing your commute. Presumably, that's the point of the advertisements—patting themselves on the back for what is a legitimate increase in customer satisfaction. Or an attempt, any way, and they want to show that they're trying.
