For the record, I'm keeping the FSA for my 'cross bike. But I've ordered a Thomson for my road bike. (It's in a hard-to-find 31.6mm size where the 287mm Elite is actually a gram lighter than the shortest Masterpiece in that size.) I've got to see what the fuss is about. Plus, there's the annoying and unpredictable saddle creep with the Easton post I've got on that bike.

I'll give up about 40g going to the Thomson but, if it eliminates the saddle creep, it will be worth it.
