Cost savings with carbon props. It just takes one strike of the ground and that blows that out of the water.

The above statement for me is totally wrong. The Carbon fiber props are much more repairable than any other type of props other than wood. It takes an experienced, learned technique that costs almost nothing in exspense, just a little time.
I do agree with doing away with the weight rule but I don't think it will happen for FAI.[]
