If six shaving blades do a substantially better job, why stop there? Why not a wheel-shaped razor with dozens of blades?
How about a robot version that works continuously, modeled on the Rhoomba robotic vacuum cleaner. It would roll about on the skin throughout the day, and could be programmed to remain above the neck, or to do the legs and underarms or...
Yikes!
I guess the package would have to carry a label warning users not to allow the Infinity-Blade Micro-Robo-Personal-Continuous Shaving Wheel® to wander onto their private parts. Inevitably, though, there would always be trouble-makers who would ignore the warnings, get their gonads nicked while driving or operating heavy machinery, etc. The lawsuits would be legion.
But the important thing is, there would be enough shaving blades to guarantee a smooth shave.
The device would have to be discreetly designed; otherwise, users would risk looking like those Bluetooth tech geeks who walk around looking for all the world like people talking to themselves while being monitored by the Mother Ship.
What if the Bluetooth device and the Personal Shaving Robot began to communicate with each other? The consequences to our race don't bear thinking about.
That might explain why Gillette stopped with six blades. Maybe their research indicated that seven blades would cause the whole concept to go haywire.
Nevermind.
