it must be fate. I never come here lately and just on a lark stopped by.
I have been saying as much for 10 years or so. All this 12g current stuff is silly mostly for the reasons you mention.
The situation on maggies is no different except that on some models there is well over 120ft of thin magwire to go through.
I have often asked the "current" proponents how 8ft of 12g can let all that current in when 120ft of 28g wire comes after the 8ft run.
Also it is more than gauge as the dielectric is pretty good and thin on magwire, and well solid is a plus IMHO.
