I very much agree.

Under dark skies it's better than a 8-10" Dob under light polluted suburban skies.

I dont think I agree with that.
Having a greater aperture allows you to use a higher magnification without running out of light. You cant go very high in the ed80 before the views start getting very dim. FWIW, I find the ed80 of very little use in suburban skies unfortunately.
