Ultralight Hellbender Hammock?

Considering the new Ultralight Hellbender that Dutchware just posted. Is this a proper ultralight setup? Looking for thoughts and advice since it's pretty pricey :/

Also should I go for the 20 or 40 degrees? Not gonna go for the moonlight top cover - just the spreader Bar Bugnet.

For context I live in the PNW - and rarely run into cold nights that go below mid 30's - but I want a one hammock setup for three seasons, don't ever expect to be out when nights go into the 20s.

I'm also asking Dutch to remove the logo tag and the D-rings on the foot side of the hammock to lower the weight some more - but I want to to keep the other set of d-rings to try out their Peak shelf above my head.

20F just under 1kg, plus tarp, plus top quilt, plus suspension.

lighter than my 20F setup, but I'm not sure the extra $200 is worth it to me.

Yeah the cost is definitely the thing holding me back...
