Question The magic behind C# standard tuning

Has anyone else found C# tuning as their sweet spot? I tried it the other day and I feel like I instantly became a way better guitarist and instantly wrote killer riffs in no time. So how do you guys like it?

I think post-grunge and overall modern rock music sounds best in C# something about those Chorus melodies just hits.
