Some points about the Classic (at least here in paradise. )
While a large is rated for like 65 pounds of lift, who uses that? The classic probably puts 20 pounds behind the diver when he is horizontal and not over inflating. Seldom need anymore lift here. And because of its wrap around bladder, no matter the diver's position, the bubble migrates to optimize lift for whatever the diver's position. I know some great published photogs who use and swear by them. And if one does not over inflate, there is no squeeze.
I'm looking for a Classic Sport. No weight pockets and no padding. I'll keep it in the Keys.
