It's going to be a step up in terms of durability, dependability, optical quality and ease of use. Here's how I've been describing it:
The year is 1947 and you've been tasked to equip a new air force. You can pick from a vast array of propeller designs that have just won WWII decisively...or you can wait a few weeks and buy jets.

Been holding off on purchasing an RMR because I wanted to see this sight first. I want to love this new Aimpoint but next to an RMR it looks freakin HUGE. I’d like to see someone concealing that in a JMCK and a t-shirt. I’m sure the quality is there and it will be great for open and/or duty carry but can you conceal it without wearing a SMFV or a button up?

I carry a g19.5/rmr2 and honestly I do not picture the acro being that much worse. I have a jmck iwb3 with tlr7. It has a 10 degree cant to it. You may have to have a different cant but the fact that the optic is on the top and faces forward should help with concealment. Hell the grip sticks out way longer then the optic will.
I am straight pumped for this personally. I believe with proper holster it will be gtg.
Will this still fit in a Safariland RDO series holster? I think that'll really decide if this hits the ground running.
I don't have any pics that I can share, but they're all over the Internet. I love that Corsair, too! The Marines did the Lord's work with them in the Pacific and in Korea, too. Saw one at the National Air and Space Museum last week at Dulles while at Aimpoint HQ for meetings.
