“Agree with all who mentioned the problem with an inner tent pitching first, the struggle to get a fly over top on windy conditions…”
That’s not a “problem”, only a feature. Don’t let it be a deal breaker. For years – since “clip style” tents came out on the market, it was never too difficult to stake out the tent body with the fly already attached over top of it, then hoop & clip in the poles, one by one, under the fly. I’m sure thousands of folks have set up their Clip Flashlights this way. I know I did even with sleeved tents.
Sure, it’s “nice” to set up a tent fly first, then the tent body, on those nasty days. But it is also equally sweet to set up a tent body only, and attach the fly in “standby mode”, leaving the tent open to the sky. Some of the “fly first” tent models can’t do this so easily.
