There are always people who will complain--as mom used to say "you'd complain if you were hung with a new rope"--but if you listed the pros and cons, the the list of the pros would be X 10 at least.
Re: hung with a new rope.
Reality, Believe it or not there are books on how to do it right. The guest of honor, or dis-honor does not get to leave any reviews but, given a choice, which you will not be given a choice, go for an older rope. It is softer and has been stretched giving you a better snap action.

Further IRONY. Ponce de Leon discovered Florida looking for the fountain of youth.
Where did all these old people come from?
