It provides some wind resistance and a few degrees of extra comfort in and of itself even before adding insulation. I've hung in 22° with the SS and the open cell foam pad, a blue closed cell foam pad and the space blanket. Each of these items plays a role at various temperature levels.
Down side to the super shelter is getting the darn thing fitted on right the first time. I practiced with it before hanging for real.
Lots of blackbird aficionados around here but I wasn't any more comfortable in it than in the HH Exped.
