Relax. You might notice I didn't claim you said it sucked, only that you slammed it for being painful if RNG is a bitch (which is no different to 1CL 5DD). The problem was you didn't mention a word about it having higher power as you claimed to have done, which is why I interpreted it that way and led to myself and Tennousu to point out it is a fair alternative. We can certainly discuss this without needing to argue.

I'll be honest, even with a CAV there's certainly the risk of getting rekt preboss, but the rate is far, FAR lower, and as DustFan mentioned, preventing artillery spotting in G node is something 1CL 5DD can only wish for. As for getting sent offcourse, I've F5'd my way out of all the offcourse routings for months, you won't get banned unless you do it an obscene number of times in a brief period. Getting sent offcourse only costs resources if you get spun after G, as you can just F5 at the formation selection when you get sent to A. Given this composition doesn't need sparkles either, morale loss is a nonfactor for F5ing too.

Really, it just comes down to whether you want more reliable fights, or a more reliable compass. I've noticed the article itself doesn't show the strengths and weaknesses of each composition, so I might work on that now.
