Sounds like it's mostly due to the advantage of reliability coupled with minimum maintenance required. That surely is a respectable reason to go for a PTW over other high-end AEGs and GBBRs.
GBBRs aside for a moment, what about high-end AEGs littered with aftermarket enhancements? Is a stock PTW still better in terms of performance and reliability compared to another high-end AEG with all the VERY best aftermarket internals? It seems that version of the AEG might end up hitting around the same cost as buying that stock PTW. Is there still a large gap in performance in reliability even then?
If I spent the same amount of money on another AEG, ending up with on-par internals, and a bonus of flashier external bling, wouldn't it make more sense to go that route? You get a better looking gun in the end. With the PTW you might have to spend hundreds more if you care about how it looks.
