 I think most people just listen to the "music" of the engine and can
tell that it's time to shift.  As I understand the RX7 rotary engine,
you need that warning tone to tell you that you're zipping past 10k
RPMs and that the streams will soon be crossed and everything nearby
will soon undergo total protonic reversal, even though it still sounds
about the same.  Is that not true?
