Darwin, I think your answer lies in the unique qualities and general low
numbers of the soaring communities.
INMHO I think the lack of Soaring adoption into 2.4 occurs for a few
reasons that follow but are not limited to:
The standard TX for many soaring enthusiasts is the Sanwa / Airtronics

I think that the concerning issue is your response time on the flaps. Almost
everyone who owns a contest sailplane has been here and failed to retract
the flaps in time. I use carbon push rods as do most of the contest pilots
these days. I don't think there is an obviously less damaging choice
Not to argue but for the people new to the concept of 2.4 there are
scenarios that they may be confusing. For example, I fly a few times a year
