^ Kudos on not responding to the arrogant ass part.

When it comes to 1X v. 2X in the pros I'm sure it's a mixed bag: Part sponsorship, part personal preference. If you've used 2X most of your life and it works, why change it? People are creatures of habit if nothing else. That and perhaps you want the bigger gear range just in case, even if you maybe never use it. All of that aside, when I go to a geared set up it will be 1X.
