Thanks so much for the first week review sirbikealot!
I do know what you mean about the front pocket, purely because its quite a tight squeeze to dig in to get stuff at the bottom correct? I see where you're coming from, but I'm not sure I could cope with wasting that space!
As for width, you wouldn't believe the difference 2.5cm or even 2cm makes to the aesthetic, feel and even in some places comfort of the bag. This was the final sticking point for the design of the bag. You tend to make a bag either too small or too big, then you make the opposite, and then you end up with a medium which is usually where the final ends up. It's quite bizzare! I was definitely very conscious of wanting a slim climbing/hiker bag style look too which was part of the decision!
