 Personally, the Peterson system, the drinkless system, and other things (filters, etc.) in the stem and/or mortise and tenon, are simply attempts to make up for lazy smoking technique and fear of using pipe cleaners.
 
 In fact, some of those "systems" are actually a hindrance to a great smoke as they foul up natural air flow.  They also trap things (tars, water, etc..) which are often highly flavored by the tobacco that was smoked previously.  Then, if you smoke a different tobacco, those "flavors" trapped there are imparted to the present tobacco being smoked.

 By the way, if you put your two cents in and someone gives you a penny for your thoughts, where does that other penny go?
