That way you could bump your chainring down to 42/44 and run a 16/17 fixed/free or something along those lines. I am glad to hear you are enjoying the bike though.
I wouldn't consider going to 1/8th that much of an upgrade. You find no real utility (read strength, durability, ect...) in the switch. There are a ton of cheap options for chains and gear in 3/32. Just my 2 cents.
