It's an issue with quite a bit of debate. One school of thought is a wing just able to float your kit. The other makes the point that some wings with more positive buoyancy are so streamline that the smaller wings offer little or no advantage and these streamline wings allow you to use them in a wider variety of configurations such as with larger/heavier steel tanks. Besides the ability to use them with a heavier tank I myself prefer a wing with more lift capacity than the minimum. It could come in handy if you find something you want to lift without using a liftbag (within reason) or in the event of a rescue of a unresponsive OOA diver particularly the way some divers overweight.
