Icon103 Straight antifreeze better than the dilute form?

How many of us have heard the story about "straight" (i.e., undiluted) ethylene-glycol antifreeze being just as effective protection against winter freezeover than the preferred 50:50 dilute form thereof -- only to realise the inevitable when an exceptionally cold winter's morning comes around and the car can't quite start?
