Ahh one more thing about LE radius and snaps.

A smaller LE radius will allow the wing to snap at lower angles of attack. this can be good or bad, depending on the degree and how it's done. What that also allows is for a plane to break into the snap more shallow and recover cleaner....in theory. It also makes the wing a tad unstable in certain conditions, and that depends on a number of other things as well.
