They are also pretty much fireproof, as has been demonstrated at least once with an exploding MSR.

Your right about the weight, but I have carried it with climbing gear to some climbs in Arran on the slabs (Glen Rosa?). But it's a great tent, solid ground sheet and no condensation problems. Mine is even heavier as it has a snow valence fitted.
I did see one MkIV have a broken ridge pole one fierce night wild camping night in Glen Etive in Scotland. My tent was right next to it, but I had storm guys on it, so it survived the night. Not sure I slept so much, as kept expecting the tent to take off!!
