IMO, going from 64 to 58mm is a significant step backwards.

Again, IMO, the primary reason smaller grinders are less consistent is due to reduced throat area restricting the bean feed rate. With a weighted mini-funnel, an MXC 64mm grinder feeds beans at a constant rate. The 58mm MC4, regardless of grind size, bean type or roast level, does not.
