Point being, that if it isn't bothering Lotus, then it shouldn't be bothering anyone else.

It's unbelievable! Pirelli make a tyre that Red Bull aren't happy with and people start to complain about it! Just no pleasing some people.
It's simple: Lotus designed a car for the 2013 season better than the others (assuming), knowing that tire wear was going to be a factor since last Summer. Who's to say that Lotus wouldn't be just as fast as Red Bull over a single lap if they had designed the car with downforce and qualifying in mind like it appears Red Bull has.

People are complaining because people like to complain, people would be complaining if Red Bull was dominating on rock hard Fred Bridgestone tires and people will complain now. However, I'm not going to complain about other people complaining as that would kind of defeat the purpose of criticising complaining.

Delamination on the other hand, Is a serious issue if it does persist, in the area of safety.
