Yep, and those are pretty neat saddles. I'm not sure they disagree with my point, though; the Kurve design was prone to cracking, despite not building in quite as much flex as a Brooks. I'm not sure that thickening the surface would help either, since it would presumably increase the elongation under flex (disclaimer: I'm not a mechanical engineer).
