Hey... Shoe Makers... Ever Heard of a Ruler?

What's the deal with extra long shoelaces?
It drives me nuts when I get a new pair of shoes and the laces are way too long. Why on earth would they do that? You end up with laces that literally drag on the ground unless you tie a double knot. Don't they know how to measure?
Look, I'm sure there are some people out there that like long laces, but for the most part, most of us simply want to tie our shoes the old fashioned way, with one simple not, so why not include normal sized laces? For the small number of people who actually prefer long laces, let them buy their own laces and go to town and let the rest of us have normal laces.
It's not rocket science. All they need is a ruler to see how much lace is left after you tie the shoe and then they'll know exactly how long the lace should be when they ship out the shoes. How hard is that?
