How about a comment, and possibly some pictures of this. Do you think it is better than standard ribbed construction?
Yes, I have looked at it. It's really cool. When you hold it up to the light and look at the structure in the stabilizers, It looks like a honeycomb inside. It's very light and the all the interlocking pieces make it very rigid for the weight.
