The multi-striped diagonal slash, which would topple over in a second if it were a physical pedestal, wrecked the symmetry of the jersey, interrupted the clean lines of the striping, and worst of all, dwarfed the actual logo.
The whole thing just looked intolerably goofy.

I agree with everything you said but I still want to see the pedestal make a return as either a one-off or a special concept like the reverse retro. They're horrible uniforms but it could be fun to watch them if they're only worn a few times.
