The New CZ P-10 C Ported - Taking Aim At Muzzle Rise

Performance meets precision, says CZ, as they release their P-10 C Ported. This new development is said to take aim at taming muzzle rise, to give shooters more control and more stability, in combination with a modern look. The barrel is 10% heavier, and ported (it’s in the name!) with a precision-milled crown.
Looking at the slide, it’s got top cocking serrations for enhanced grip, and the sights are luminescent (matching CZ P-09 Nocturne). If you want to run optics, the slide is ready for that as well. Overall, the Ported version keeps the same ergonomics, trigger, and compatibility with standard P-10 C holsters.

A small hole with a big difference? Sign me up for a test shoot and I’ll tell you. But experience tells me it’s going to help, and it would be a joy to spend a few hours on the range and find the right load and cartridge to optimize performance.
For someone who sees a lot of news, it’s almost apparent that all handgun manufacturers seem to have gathered for a secret meeting somewhere, and all decided to launch products with ported barrels at about the same point in time. What do you think of the trend? Are you a “ported” person or not?

I've been hoping for an updated frame, but this is a positive upgrade!
I'd love to understand more about the trade-offs in velocity vs the reductions in muzzle rise and/or speed increase in splits.
