Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

I've owned a few superstrats over the years but they've never stuck around for long. Not quite my jam.
I really like SGs and I've owned 4 or 5 over the years but I've never really gelled with them either.
