The benefit of having hammock material "close" is a good point and there is no question that the pole setup makes a 250 look more like a suspended tent. It is hard to say without trying one out, but from the pictures it looks like the 250 might be usable without any poles at all, similar though not identical to a 200 (with a few extra lines, bungees, etc.). If so, there may be options as to how close it is.
Anyway, thanks for all the info. I wil get cracking on this transaction.
