This is true, but it's not the point. The point is that pie menus are
supposed to be more efficient to use, you have bigger targets which
are better separated and organised - what happens when you trigger one
is in this discussion - irrelevant.

I would also be interested in seeing a working version of pie menus -
at least to see if I really like them or not.
