This is why I've spent so much on trying all those optics on the AR platform: "Finally, an optic that should be perfect for me!"
Yes, a green dot MRO is tempting. I like green FO sights, so that new $500 optic should be amazing, even if the dot renders as a cluster of green grapes instead of red ones! Got to love astigmatism....
You mentioned that I must have good eyesight - actually quite the opposite. RDS (or GDS) render as globs, leaving me with greater accuracy potential with a good set of irons. Yes, the RDS is faster for target acquisition but if I have time to aim and squeeze, I'm at least as good with irons.
I like LPV scopes, they make me faster and more accurate, but because I never spent two or three grand on one, I was left wanting due to some optical/mechanical/feature shortfall on the sub-$1000 scope I had tried. On top of that (no pun intended) adding another pound or two so far over the bore axis changed the handling/balance of the rifle in a way I did not care for, the additional bulk/weight diminishing the "handy, light-weight" attributes that are of greater value to me in a "carbine."
So yes, I am aware of the advantages of various optic solutions for an AR, but I'm also acutely aware that each of them come with some baggage. For the role the AR carbine serves for me, a good set of irons remains the best option - and at the fraction of the cost of typical top-tier optic solutions it's less painful to experiment.
Just one old guy's POV, fully cognizant that others have undoubtedly arrived at different conclusions.
