Why would you think that to be able to do a better job makes it harder? Just because features are there, that does not mean it needs to be used. The extra feature set when not used make it as easy to use as a PC to use.
I don't think that's what I said Steve.
"For those who don't want or need to fine tune the warm-up tables, the idle speed, etc. the
PC still offers less complexity which results in less expense both for the hardware and for dyno time. And the PC is still able to be removed without a trace, unlike the SERT, which eases the minds of those worried about the cheap bast#@ds at H-D trying to void their warranty."
Even without getting involved in all the other parameters, a SERT tune will require more dyno time than a similar tune with a PC. This has been attested to by many tuners and members on this site, and is reflected in the charges of those I know who tune with both devices. So if someone is interested in conserving resources ($$) more than they are interested in owning some extra capabilities that they may never need or use, in my opinion the PC may be all they will ever need. I have no personal axe to grind or financial interest in any of those choices, btw.
