I like that manufacturers are going that direction but I think some of the people who have gone to the high (higher, I guess) aspect mains have had a bit of difficulty (well, maybe difficult is too strong of a word) tuning them right.

This is a trend we have been seeing in the all the formula and box rule classes for a while. With each rev of foils, sails and rig there will be a small bump in performance but it will take an increasingly higher skillset to maximize those improvements. That magic sweet spot will continue to get smaller and smaller, and the performance hit for falling out of the sweet spot will get increasingly more painful.
Some of us will have to make a choice, chase the potential performance gain and dedicate the stick time to maximize it or stay with a configuration that is more forgiving. It's nice to have options.
