Default Anyone Else a Fan of Sony's "Standard" Mode?

I know most pros, calibrators and those "in the know" choose Sony's "Custom" or "Cinema" picture modes when adjusting their sets (or projectors), but I have found, on my particular KDS-50A2020 SXRD, that "Standard" gives a more pleasing "pop" with less "Advanced Settings" to adjust for those without the patience to do so; and so, I have calibrated my set with two different discs -- one being the DVE Blu-ray -- in Standard mode, making adjustments to almost all of the default settings to "tame" the look and get sharpness right...

I understand that Sony applies some edge enhancement and other tricks from the Custom mode's Advanced menu automatically in Standard, but on my particular SXRD set, there are no Advanced menus in Standard -- you must enter Custom to adjust for Gamma, Black Corrector, etc. However, I understand also that Standard on these SXRDs apply a much less amount of sharpness, edge enhancement, etc. as compared to what the sets do on VIVID.

I'm just wondering if anyone else with a Sony set (doesn't have to be a rear pro SXRD although this is the section of the forum for it) uses Standard mode and if it seems "okay" to do so -- at least not using Vivid.
