Default Hang on stand designs

If you could change anything about hang on treestands, what would it be? Whether it's the seat, the platform, chain vs strap, anything you can think of.

I would lower the cost of the Lone Wolf Alpha [8D]!!!!!!!!!!! Otherwise I think when using the LW sticks, its by far the easiest stand to set up!

More comfortable seat everyone wants, but I want a seat when I put it up it stays up and out of the way. Drives me crazy when I try to get around in the stand and the seats in my way. I prefer chain on as to me they are easy to hang, but I can see how other prefer straps. Stands should be abit adjustable to handle slight angles and keep the platform level. Not all places you want a stand in have straight trees.

Higher seats that are comfortable with a decent platform where my size 13s arent hanging over the edge.

I am tall and hate sitting in hang on stands as I can't get up into shooting position smoothly. I go bell to bell sometimes so standing all the time isn't an option.
