I use the Hog harness, and I think putting the thing on, and taking it off is much easier than my old BCs. I can sling it over one shoulder and on much quicker and easily. I simply slip the shoulders over and grab onto my boats leaning post to pull myself up. With BCs the much more complicated shoulder straps pretty much eliminate my BP method. If I had the non Hog type harness I think it would be equal to a BC though. It's the uncomplicated simplicity of the Hog harness that makes the on and off thing so easy IMO. And when I surface people, always rush to try to help me remove my gear. But I slip one arm out and grab that to lift the entire thing off while standing up. It's great and too easy. I love it alot for just those two reasons. Not to mention being free now!
About the only thing I can see a BC doing better is possibly pockets. But I am thrilled to have no pockets anymore. And many BCs pockets would be considered a joke to me. But everyone does things different and there are alot of ways to get the job done.
And a improperly purchased/settup, BP/Wing would be just as screwed up as a wrong sized improperly bought/settup BC.
