Do you have a steady ammo budget?
How is the current setup holding you back?
If there are no glaring hardware issues holding you back, money is likely better spent on ammo.

I would say that lighter is certainly a factor whilst remaining very durable (thoughts go to Geissele), but equally for me is the diameter of the rail. Looking for a slimmer profile than a pic rail for gripping options and comfort. I know everyone is different but the ergonomics of a slimmer rail would be more ideal for me.
For some reason the pictures are not showing for me (just bold titles) :( The "quote" shows the address but then my work computer wont let me go lol, figures. Will try to take a look from my phone later.
Not at the moment but would like the possibility in the future without needing to change rails again haha
The main reason, as I replied to Stickman a tad earlier, would be for a combination of weight savings and ergonomics; besides the cheese-grater feel (i have those DD covers), grip ergonomics.
I'd say I have a pretty steady flow of ammo availability. I have ample overtime opportunities every week (which also pays double time) which is primary the money I use for shooting expenses and the rifle. Not saying I'm rich or something nor trying to brag in any way, just trying to establish, since queried, that I have plenty for ammo and shooting, which is done as often as I can.
I'm not looking to just "trick out" my rifle or something, thinking that will have some bearing on fundamentals or skills, but would also like to have my rifle set up how I like and how works for me. I'm not a new shooter though I am new to AR's. Primarily have shot traditionally stocked rifles; Mini-14 (which I still have), M1A, Garand, Ruger Scout, Remington 700, etc.
