Didn't that James Hoffman review show that heat loss was worse transferring into a gooseneck than the air kettle? Personally I've never understood the need for a gooseneck as a normal kettle works fine. I understand in a shop where you're pouring hundreds a day but I've already got too much crap and I definitely don't need two kettles in my life.
Yep, which is why I pop my kettle on the hob to bring it the kettle + water up to temp. The metal of a regular gooseneck will conduct more heat from the water than the plastic of the Air (I did mention that in my comment).
