I gave up and went RMR Type 2 today. It looks to be the least-bad option for EDC. For me, the flaws are the bottom-load battery, the BUIS obstructing much of an already-small window, and the reports of loss of emitter window. I'd take an enclosed emitter but it's not a priority for my use - the optic will be under a shirt or indoors or at at an outdoor range in decent weather for 98% of my shooting, the remaining 2% being the rain I seem to encounter at training courses.
The ACRO battery life is a disappointment, but to be honest I still feel like I would've gone RMR anyway because of the profile of the optic.
