the website explains it

I poked around the site but didn't find it where I expected. In retrospect, I see that the "Instruct" link makes sense, but I had basically dismissed that area.

I am using the green and I agree with your points here. I have been shooting with the green one for a long time now. I rarely ever scuff it or hit it with a tip-pick. It DOES lose its shape over time though, consistent with how your other
tips might wear down over time (my tips always get flatter over time, I have a friend whose tips tend to always get rounder over time).

In snooker an intentional jump is not allowed. It's up to the referee to determine if it was intentional. Accidentally leaving the bed is not called foul.

Jump shots are not legal in snooker. It does not matter whether or not it is intentional.

... Diamond's support is crucial, of course, but what happens if the live audience keeps dwindling? Doesn't matter to me, I guess, but it seems the event needs to become a wee bit more modern to survive long term.

I think its existence is not in jeopardy. There were over 700 players present, not counting those who only came for the action room. The hotel ran out of rooms. They had to limit entries (to all three major events?). I think the main danger to continuing is if the casino decides it's not profitable, which is very unlikely since it fills the place in the middle of winter. But I can see fewer of the top names showing up with more pro events available.
