The fact still remains, a smaller diameter scope, lighter in weight, more portable, would be a much better fit for you. An 8 inch Meade will show you more than your 14 inch all things considered, the rule of "more inches is always better" is not a real rule, it's a salesman's rule. Heck, if you have too much light pollution, get a super nice 6 inch refractor a do planetary work.
Would I give up my SC for a GT3RS? No. I daily drive my car, and the GT3RS would be worse that useless for me, just like a 14 inch Meade would be less than worthless to me compared to many other options.
