TBH if the SFN is already in you don't have a lot of choice as it would be a bitch to get out.

No real advantage to HD aside the simplicity of fitting it with only an allen key. I use HDs and think they work well but others would disagree and say they break.

A SFN is a piece of p1ss to remove. Just shove it down the bottom of the pipe.

IF you can get a HD secure they're great, but if they want to be slidey, they want to be slidey
