Rise Of The Dead said:It's "suspected" that it increases oxygen capability & VO2 max which "if" is the case, enhances only one aspect of cycling performance.
It's purpose is to increase red blood cells which carry oxygen in people with anemia and cancer, so I don't think there is any doubt about it. It's been researched and used on patients around the world.
Concentrating on (one) limiting factor to cycling performance can't possibly make you a Tour contender or eventual winner, EPO or no EPO.
The thing with Armstrong is, EPO is probably not his drug of choice anymore anyway, and probably hasn't been for the best part of this decade, so you are right to highlight that some magical response to one particular drug will not win you a tour. However, by claiming EPO is "suspected" to work, you allow some here to paint you as a bit of a troll, and worst still, lump others in with you. That's not too smart.
