This is another variable to throw into the equation. Different peoples eyes seem to have varying sensitivity to coma and abberations. I could see abberations toward the edge of field in Daves 12mm nagler that he could not.

For me the GSO SV was horrible, with any of the field greater than that of a standard plossl showing objectionable abberations, even at f7.5 in my ED80.
Vings comment above about the GSO having a lighter background indicates lesser contrast, even at a slightly higher mag.

The moral is that a cheaper eyepiece may be good enough for you, but not for the next man.

P.S. Yes the panoptics are also very good
