I find splitting those ends manually is a real drag. It's much easier to do
with bad bokeh!

OTOH, no, I don't really find an advantage to the 160 even in that area.
There might be some, but the difference between the 100 speed films and the
400/160 is apparent to me, but not the difference between the 160 and 400.
So it's 100 or 400 for me.

I'm sure that there are reasons to use the 160's, but I just haven't found
them yet in my shooting.
