There's a modesty issue with worn out suits.  If you have a lycra/nylon suit that is either too thin or worn out, it can show the contours too much -- and some suits look OK when dry but after a swim they stretch out.  So one needs to be careful about that.
I realize people have suits with a pouch sewn in front, but I'm talking about regular swim briefs.  But I think most of the discussion on the Amazon's site isn't about that.
