    Looks like I'm starting with a hunting project next week.. Mind you, in that project I am a participant, not a decision maker.

    Yes I do and no I won't .
    That part of the design was wilfully misleading.
    A sharper point makes it too easy to put point of aim unintentionally too high.
    You have a very real concern and it is solved in the current reticle, but not with a sharper point.
