Yeah, and that it makes the unit more modular and convenient to break down. I like the break down style but prefer the valve feathering option. Aren't choices a great thing?
That makes some sense, I knew there must be another benefit I wasn't thinking of. Feathering the valve will keep the water out and is easy to do. But another QC is another thing that needs attention, however infrequent. For me taking the O2 line off the 1st stage is easy enough to do with a wrench though...
