Anyone dropped to a 165 crank and enjoyed it?

A few articles with high profile folks seem to suggest there is next to no downsides and lots of advantages. So why isn't 165 the norm?

I run 165mm on almost everything.

First ride today on 170 down from 175 and it felt nice, also felt that little bit less saddle rub you mention which was great.

Wondering if I should try 165 now, or just be happy that 170 feels nicer.
