Stu could post exactly the same reply to you about his usual road engines he well, which also work.
Its all about what you want from an engine at the end of the day, i build engines of different specs for different things, for example my engine ive built for my nova should make best part of 600bhp and is 8.25:1, so if you think i dont agree with you on a lot of what you are saying you are wrong, but i do think you are choosing only to say the half the story that suits you despite the fact you probably know a lot more about CR/boost and PCP/timing than you are letting on here with your seemingly blinkered replys that everything has to be like a rally engine!
You havent even mentioned economy or engine lifespan, and those are things that most people rate quite highly on road engines, even fairly big power ones!
