I believe that if you have a squishy enough undercarriage, the cutout can increase contact area, or at least the angles of contact. I've known people complain about being able to feel the circumference seam on the cut out of Spesh Toupe saddles, but this would have been about ten years ago. I've used saddles with cut outs without any problem, although I don't own any now.

Regarding cut outs: is there any reason not to go for one?
In my mind, having a cut out can only be of benefit. But I'm probably missing something. Less contact surface area and therefor higher pressure overall maybe?
