I forgot about the "top down while the hardtop is on" thing. I had a hardtop on my Miatas (I miss it, been keeping my eye out for one, but they sure are hard to grab for the Z).
And yeah, been thinking about the "extra down and up at the end of the day in the garage burning out the motor sooner" thing.
Basically...we're screwed. May as well just do as you want and pay the piper when you need to, with this one.
