I agree with most of what you say, but I don't find that the stabilizer is needed with the MicroRocket/Titan kettle setup. The Jetboil is taller, and the canister is narrower, leading to a more tippy configuration. The MSR canister is a bit shorter and broader than the Jetboil canister, which also helps make it more stable. I've tipped over a Jetboil once, but never a Micro/Pocket Rocket. But that's just my experience; I'm sure there are others with just exactly the opposite.
I think Colin Fletcher once said that getting someone to change his religion was a simple matter compared to getting him to change his stove allegiance.
I'm not really trying to discredit the Jetboil; just relate my own preference. And, as you and I have both said many times before, everyone is entitled to their own preference.
