Agree with your sentiment but the handling, balance, feel of the car has improved dramatically over the S197. It is a better car top to bottom even if not faster in a straight-line currently. The Boss had more power and weighed less which made it a straight-line winner. On a track, I will reserve comment until we see a same day track comparison of GT track pack vs Boss, vs 1LE.
