Way too much stuff to tinker with tho, when an 8y-old, bone stock B4 or B4.1 works so well right out of the box...  car looks cool nonetheless.

I think you don't need to use all the adjustability features to make the car work well. If you don't know what all the adjustments do then you can leave them stock or adjust them like on a proven setup, right?
I understand your point though, this unlike the B4 probably indeed has many more setup options than the average basher would use - which is indeed a strength of the B4 (and TRF201) when it comes to the driveability for people who don't need or don't have the feel for all the setup changes, the sales numbers, sales prices perhaps as well and spares availability...
...but not necessarily when it's on the track with a DEX210
The thing is, I think the DEX210 won't perform much better than the B4 on tracks the B4 was made for - perhaps in the hands of the best drivers they can get slightly more from the DEX210 as they can fine-tune it even further. However, the real advantage comes for the racer who drives in championships or on several tracks. A B4 just has a limited ability to change it's weight balance or it'll be compromised by the weight you've added, whereas the DEX210 can be set up perfectly to that track as well!
There's just one thing to test: TD's 'claim' that this versatility can be done without lots of rebuilding and additional parts, like the additional gearbox housing on the TLR22.
