This whole thing of disclosure is rather pointless at this stage in the road. The Paradox pack isn't available for purchase yet. As soon as it is anyone is welcome to buy one and post what ever they find. Review away as the case may be.

As far as Scott's review, he and the other reviewers are reviewing packs that are already on the market in addition to the Paradox. Nathan and Kevin are somewhat running a risk of including a pack that may not be in it's final form.

That said, I have no stake in Paradox packs and very limited business dealings with SO. I have however written gear reviews for a number of magazines over the past 25 years. Some of those magazines include Climbing, Sea Kayaker, Successful Hunter, UltraRunning and Trail Runner.
