I have a low action and a ramp, so don't tend to dig in. It took a while for the adjustment of technique, but now I find it difficult to play basses without ramps.
Not sure what you're getting cross about, and why you feel the need to remind me of anything?
And beyond the Ring Cycle, Parsifal, and Siegfried, I admit my Wagnerian musical knowledge is lacking. TBH I prefer Tchaikovsky.
Any other ultra light string users here?
I tend to favour Rotosound. Occasionally I'll try another brand but I always end up going back. Can't say I've noticed a tonal difference with lighter strings, and they suit my playing better as I like to use ramps.
I need my ultra lights to be long scale, because even though my Shuker's are medium scale, I have the extended fretboard on my E string (for a low D).
Many years ago aged 16. Can't remember the pub name but it was in Castleford. We did originals with some Pink Floyd covers. IIRC, and I may not, I think I was using a Westone Thunder 1, which belonged to the college.
