[Elecraft] Sidetone Monitor Preference Opinions

Just out of curiosity what do you gentlemen prefer?  Do you like things
better the way the K3 does things where the monitor level is a fixed
output regardless of the AF knob.  Or is the way the K1 does things more
preferred.  The STL menu entry allows one to set the side tone monitor
as an offset from the RX level.  So you set the monitor level and it
gets louder or quieter as you adjust the AF Gain.  

My personal preference is the K1 method.  I like this because if my wife
is sleeping then I like to turn down the volume (if not go all the way
and use headphones).  I like to have the sidetone go down as well rather
than make a separate adjustment.  I'm not asking for any changes.  Just
curious to hear the thoughts of others on this topic.
