The chrome are heavier by about 90 -100 g due to more brass than alloy in their construction, but aesthetics aside, is there any difference in mechanical stability at temperature extremes, or in durability? I would appreciate your thoughts on these or any other aspects. (Sorry if this topic has been well-trodden already, but I've not seen anything on it yet.) TIA.
