That part made me immediately suspicious. More like "the B43 is the ultimate rim for tricking and bike polo because all those guys will know how much you paid for them"

It's a fad thing where something catches the eye of the market and then it gets over-designed way beyond what is practical. It was only a matter of time before a company had to out V the deep V, and ironically, it's the original creator of the deep V itself.
Actually I think they were out deep V'd by these first. http://shop.hplusson.com/product/formation-face

Strangely enough the B43 is a mm deeper than the formation face that it came out after.

I really like my rear 32 hole rear 24 front SL42 combo FWIW. It built nicely and has yet to spontaneously detonate. "shill he's a shill ,burn the shill" I payed full price and have been very happy so far. In 10,000 miles I'll be qualified to give a full review. The wind does make things a little more interesting at times but not OMG scary.
