I view chain as hundreds of pounds of unnecessary weight.
But, Eric, you're the one guy on the forum who for years has been searching for an anchor that works. Meanwhile, the rest of us are doing fine for the most part with what we have. Perhaps if you put a proper chain rode on any one of the 300 anchors you own, you, too, could simply "deploy and forget" like those of us with all-chain do, rather than spend hours wringing your hands over what anchor might hold for you on a 1:1 scope with a shoelace for a rode.
