Im sure we can go on and on about this. And it seems you are educated with these motors and have spent time working on them. All i am arguing is your ridiculous assumption that the Rotary is a "failure in engineering" which it clearly is not.
What is cheaper about a rotary? Nothing, cost to produce, and rebuild is more than a comparable piston engine. The piston engine will also make more hp per liter, produce more power and torque as well as produce higher MPG.
