Well it's not that i disagree with them, i have one 
But for the usage and need of them wouldn't benefit anyone unless they were a track geek like myself.
If it's for road use mainly then it's just adding another part which can break, it's more mechanisms to go wrong just submerged in oil.
As you know LSD's were invented for transferring the power to the grounded wheel when they other is raised from the surface. Where the hell are you going to go rallying on public roads? 
I'm guessing this hill was ship hill Tim?

The old shaft was heat treated differently to the new one.
I just came on boost in 2nd going up a hill, it started to loose traction.... then BANG!
Got my new ones in now, so far no problems, touch wood!
