Why not _FRN_ set in a stainless handle?

I had a Pro-grip once and the kraton inserts got crummy worn look with only a little bit of carry/use, so I hesitate to buy the steel handle version or other steel/kraton models, even though they look cool. I also don't like the sticky feel of kraton. FRN Delicas are smooth enough gor pocket carry and feel nice, but are plenty grippy with just a little squeezing.

I was looking at the new Stretch model, and I thought "it would be perfect if only they made it with FRN inserts instead."
 
I would ask the same allthough I would prefer G10.
I have some Bacote that I am looking to have installed in my Stretch.I just find it to hard to use with the Krayton.

G10 wouldn't be bad either, certainly better than kraton, but I really like the deep texture of an FRN Delica or Native.

I would like to see the g10/FRN insert bulge out of the handle a little, with the outer edges of the steel matching the curve.
