Hard to see how you can get the "sensitivity of braid with the stretch of mono" unless the elasticity is non-linear (ie developing only as you approach breaking tension). I doubt this is the case, but if it was it would cut down on straighten hooks and lost fish.

Interesting

But I'd like to see them do something to improve the abrasion resistance of braid.
