That said, I still think the full scale adds a punch to the tone that articulates the treble more than sub-25" scale acoustics.
I think what it shows is that peoples idea of balance is different and, hence, what constitutes dark. The 35 series, as I'm sure you know, has 1/4" braces, so the probability of them being more bass-dominant is higher.
