They effectively connect tent peaks to poles and guy lines. And the all mesh inner tent must be best in class for stargazer mode.

And it’s not really fair to compare the polyester material negatively to non-ultralight tents, when it should be praised for being stronger, lighter and better in rain than nylon.
