In all seriousness, it does sound like Stockli is more of a darling than Kastle with Pugs at the moment.
Never been on a Stockli. But got me thinking, when I visited a shop end of last season that carried both, they generally seemed to prefer Stockli and talked up the SR95s to me. I was real tempted, but held off as I've never had a chance to try. It made me really want to demo a pair this season though to see what all the fuss is about.
I feel like the MX89s are as good as advertised. Worth the extra money.
I don't know if Kastle is out of favor here. Maybe there are more people discovering that Stockli is equal or better than Kastle and are willing to pay that even higher premium? I don't keep track of pricing so someone can correct me but I think Stockli as a whole are a touch more expensive.
