except they don't, did you read the page you posted?

the page talks about "weathering" with real touch markers, which is just a shameless marketing plug because markers is the last thing you would use for weathering if you want it to look good, and it's certainly not "essential" to weather (poorly)

you might want to build and paint a couple dozen more kits before you start pushing your opinions my dude
