I don't hate LEDs at all. To the contrary, I used them, understood them and even have some over a shallow anemone tank where shadowing and coverage is not a problem. I just don't use them over my larger tanks because it makes no sense whatsoever for my acropora. I understand LED as much as most who use them and nearly anybody who thinks that they under MH who only parrots what they heard online about them.
Even if LED were to match a MH for performance, it would still take more for me to spend $20k and then commit to another $20k every 5 years to just buy panels. If this happened, I would do it in a heartbeat. I am not holding out hope at this point.
