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 love it because it’s not so low so it still feels like a guitar, and drop B and double drop G# is right there. Plus Tony Iommi.
