Is There A Place For Elbow Pads in Muay Thai

Ill put the punch line first before anyone else "yeah on your elbows mate"

reading on another thread there seemed to be a little dislike to this as the use of elbows is prodominantly to cut so its not real muay thai if there isnt desired effect.

Im of the persuasion that if they are included elbows could also be used at lower levels thus preserving more authentic muay thai techniques and lets face it shinpads dont stop people throwing effective round kicks, but im keen to find the general concencus out there.

would gyms be interested in trying this with their fighters on shows / interclubs?

do the benefits outweigh the risks?
