Donald,
I feel exactly the same way about the bigger, heavier instrument. But there is also the issue of keeping all those long rods and linkages in adjustment.
After the low C FFFFFF euphoria and swoon has passed, you still have a bigger case to lug around. However, Cole is young and probably strong but for us oldsters, lighter is better.
Funny about the jazz usage idea; I have been thinking about the same thing. Using the entire range on the bass seems to bring forth some interesting timbre issues. Eric Dolphy would probably be pleased. Check this out. I don't quite know how to react but it is different.
