I do get all that^, and quite honestly I have no need for a single power meter, let alone the fleet which I have. I do have one single sided power meter- a Vector S - which I bought as the only way I could get power on a vintage bike (Klein Criterium), in the back of my mind was the upgrade path to dual sided if I rode the Klein a lot though.
What I am getting at is why buy something you know to be a compromised design with no upgrade path to a proper design, when a proper power meter is so close on price that it's not a factor?
As I said, I don't need a power meter, but that doesn't mean I'll buy a bad one.
