With the pedal based, it's a non-issue.

I'm not arguing that one is better than the other, just pointing out something I did (changing cranks) where the pedal based were an advantage for me.
When power meters cost $2000, I would move my Quark crank between my road bike and my TT bike between stages on a 2 stage day of a stage race. If both bikes use the same bb, it’s a 5 minute job.
