Wouldn't it be better to hold out until they develop something that maintains current power, safely? I'm not sure I'd be shopping for a plane through this forum any more if I thought there were alternatives that didn't need de-rating.

Also, my reading suggests there are other considerations beyond detonation being addressed, such as erosion of parts that hold up fine in 100LL (not because of the lead itself). Non-linearities in combinations is another, as mentioned in the AVWeb write-up.
