It was Leno's video that got me on board with it. And I like the idea of a zero pressure coolant on a car nearing 40 years, even though I've replaced every hose on it.

I'd expected the prep part of the conversion, they talk about that extensively on the web site. My system is bone dry, from servicing, block is dry, heater core is flushed and dried with a slow flow of 10 psi air. The radiator is new, and the hoses are all new. So that part is not a problem, it's the other things that I found out about only after buying the stuff, and ready the installation instructions. I don't object to it, I'm just wondering if it's all worth it now, seems like a lot more hassle, than "make sure your previous coolant is all gone".
