Make no mistake about it, performance carburetors get the job done sure enough.  That's quite apparent in Yellow Dog's numbers.
I'm looking at this from an efficiency point of view.  If you can deliver similar power, lower emissions and lower consumption why not do it?
I understand the argument that Greg puts on the table and I can assure you, nobody likes to deal with malfunctioning electronics.  But then again, carburetors have the same type of issues:  Stuck floats, clogged jets, rebuilds, etc.  Over a century-old technology!  The system is way to dependent on the environment and karma in my opinion.
It's just a matter of what you like to tinker with, just as Greg put it.
I'm obsessed with efficency, new designs, and technology; I guess this is a good thing for ya'll in light of the fact that I will be designing your new cars in a couple years.  I will go the electronic route.
Happy tinkering!
