Holley's science vs Edelbrock simplicity?

No one said to buy a 1k carb. I said I was looking at one. I still am. You may not see the value in it, but I do. I didn't bat an eye to drop 850 on my BLP BX4 so what's another 150?
You yourself have recommended high dollar carbs often. The merit of there worth will vary upon application. With respect, I think some of the suggestions of such $1000 carbs were a misfire only due to the intended application at hand for the end user. This is not an insult, argument starter or a debatable thing. Just a point of view where I scratch my head and wonder. Why spend big on a carb a guy doesn’t understand how they work and ditch the cheaper carb and simpler carb that he understands and will work for the intended application on the street and sometimes strip.
