It's not an opinion if he's stating facts from a hard science.

I have agreed with some of his points (drive shaft is not the
best upgrade when looking to loose rotational mass).
He is however pushing he opinion. "IMO the effect of the drive shaft is negligible." He also is implying that in his opinion lighter drive shafts are a waste of money for a "street car". This is his opinion based on what he believes to be negligible gains vs money spent. Again his
opinion.
on another note everyone i know that has gone with an aluminum drive shaft has already installed lighter wheels (and wider), crank pulley and flywheel. the drive shaft is just part of their effort to reduce the cars overall rotational mass.
my opinion is to buy a light weight drive shaft if you are intending to lighten up more of the car. if its just a daily that you have fun with don't bother with a drive shaft and go straight for a flywheel and wheels.
