There's a definite attitude among "faster" classes that Mosquitoes should not win regattas. The whole point of a handicap system is that having a faster boat does not mean you get to automatically win. If a well setup Mosquito races against a well set up A-class/F18/F16/Taipan and the sailors are all experienced sailors then anyone can win on the day. I don't know why that is such a hard concept for some people to get.
The sailer of the "faster" boat would have to admit they didn't sail very well. Much easier to blame the yardstick or classify a Mozzy as a cheater boat.
SCHRS treats square tops and pin head mainsails as the same, might not do to well under that system.
