Centre vs 3/4 point

Hi, I've just reveived my ED10 and I'm very excited to start getting to know it. I'm planning to buy a small kit for an A2E conversion but I haven't made a decision yet on which triggers to buy.

I'm generally a light player, delicate doubles and buzzes etc., so I'm looking for extremely sensitive and accurate triggering. Which trigger format is best for this? I see that positional sensing (which I don't know anything about but sounds interesting) only works with centre piezos but if I'd get better triggering from a different style of trigger then that's probably more useful for me.

I'm looking at Jobeky triggers since they're a UK company (the import tax for my ED10 made me wince) but I'm willing to consider other options if they might work better with the ED.

Any advice appreciated as I'm quite new to this stuff.

TLDR: Which triggers are best for accuracy?

Any trigger that uses a single sensor in center will have a "hot spot"
Any trigger that uses 3 or more around the edges will not have a hot spot.

At low levels, the hot spot control does not help much.

in general, the heavier and more isolated the trigger is, the better it works.
