But instead, it seems that this multimat is used down in the UC? So actually your down jacket is also down in the UC, below the OCF pad and space blanket? In that case, I would not be worried about down compression.
But I am amazed to hear that you are using the multimat down in the UC ( if that is correct) and that it is working. The first night I ever used my SS, I froze. I latter found out one of the things I did wrong was place my pad in the UC, which caused a gap and loss of warm air. But maybe this multimat is flexible enough and light enough per square inch that it can be placed down in the UC without negative results.
