I don't know that it does work better. Flat or concave could 
work just as well or better. I haven't explored them yet. So 
far, I'm familiar enough with convex crown systems to have 
some idea what to expect from configuration changes within 
that type of system. Eventually I'll try other things. Should 
anyone out there wish to throw sufficiently large quantities 
of cash at me that I don't ever have to work for a living 
again, and can afford the space, equipment, and materials to 
pursue it, the R&D could progress at a much accelerated pace.

Standing by for offers...
