I didn't believe .008s sounded good until someone handed me his guitar... Ham-handed playing like mine needs the extra tension to avoid buzzing out.
It's rare, but on some guitars 008s!!!! sound and play better. I once posted
about two years ago that I strung my Godin Freeway classic with 8s! Apparently, he,
Bart the swiftie has hung on to that little tidbit like a bullet, just waiting for the chance to blast me with it.
