I'm not hung up on SNOT anyway... so that's fine with me.  :)

On the other hand, it is the sturdiest UCS
construction and looks fabulous as well.

That is a much bigger concern for me, so this is good to know!  It's one of my
favorite ships from the Star Wars universe.

My only one qualm with the design is
that the canopy was too heavy for the new click hinge plates, and would not stay
open.

Maybe some after-build tinkering?

Anyway, it looks good and has a wealth of parts.

Also good to know.  Not to start the whole debate again, but is it correct to
think that it uses the old light grey?

think I'd rate it as an 8.

Great!  Thanks Steve.
