I think the biggest sore spot concerning MA is the cost for what you get. If they were as cheap (or close) as similar performing packs, then people wouldn't have a problem because they would meet expectations. But when a premium price is paid, people expect a premium product. Yeah, a warranty is nice, but when a single pack and a warranty is more expensive than getting two equal performing packs... well, you can do the math.

I too haven't had problems with my MA packs, but they do tend to run warmer than other brands, and I have had issues with assembly (not so much that, but the thickness of the tabs when I tried to reassemble them).

GD, you are a racer (and a decent one too from what I've seen), and hence have more throttle control. This leads to much gentler discharge curves. So it makes sense that a lesser battery works just as good as a higher-end one for you. Bashers tend to hammer the throttle more aggressively and therefore need batteries that can handle those bursts.
