You can't totally avoid those tiny specks of lint as long as humans are working on them. What bugs me is the lack of QC that doesn't capture the really big "debris".

Case and point: when I got my Aristo with the Harley micro-rotor movement, I took this shot and couldn't believe my eyes: fdo you notice the large piece of metal shaving underneath the center wheel right above the axle of the micro rotor? :X
