Proposition déductive de M. Michel Gouin, traducteur, section scientifique centrale - (on ne trouve pas "duck valve" dans les dictionnaires; le premier sens de "duck" est celui d'un tissu, et il est difficile d'imaginer une pièce mécanique comme une soupape qui serait faite d'un matériau aussi souple que la silicone).
