Stan already pointed out that he didn't want to hang drooped ends close 
to the towers that he is using to support the dipole.  He would get 
unwanted coupling with them.

And his modeling (correctly in my opinion) shows the bandwidth to be 
wider with the additional capacitive loading that his version has versus 
just drooped wire extensions.
