True, but at the same time, as control sounds pretty tight already, if going for the pump, the transition onto the pump would be a fine time to work all that stuff out - it's really not that complex anyway. I found its a lot easier to tinker with getting I:C ratio right, armed with a pump. For a start you can experiment with smaller sized carb amounts and multiple extra boluses through the day, without having to resort to a lot of injections, and with a much bigger chance of very similar absorption, at least while on the same set (usually 3 days).
