Allowed!
Going by your experience a lot of people will be pleased with this one.
If you are one to push a head vertically against your nose and take a N to S stroke to get to uppermost whiskers, you may find the dome height excessive. If you can rotate the head 90d and go E to W, you'll have no issues at all. Thats exactly how I work it, but I do that even with a WR1. Its just become part of my process.
Ive been told Murat wants to use the 2020 as the design basis for the Ti model. Right now, I am hoping he uses the 2021. It would be a magnificent shaver.
Glad those shipping notices went out. I think you guys are in for a real treat. Especially if you have no 2020 experience. Hard to predict individual reactions but I bet the vast majority are going to love it.
What impresses me more than anything is the ability to cover almost every imaginable modern razor in ability to cut close.
I've been bugging DuFour for a 185 via email for a couple weeks. He won't budge. No worries really, Sailor easily has got a 2.05mm WR2 covered.
Even still, to me, the Sailor really shines in the 2-4 setting. Extremely smooth and still cuts better than anything in my den.
No problems here under the noose wit the 2020 even when going N - S. I have used lots of razors and this is the one that after a shave has the most hours before I start feeling stable again (and that’s coming from a guy who shaves twice a day).

Balancing a round shaft on a round bottle is tricky but it was the best way I could think of to definitively answer your question. Hope this helps.
