It's obvious there are plus points and minus points for each method. Just got to choose what suits you.
fitting a thicker h/gasket or decomp late is never the real solution as ideally you want as thin a gasket as possible to give better heat transfer from head to block ,thats why the jp4 has deeper combustion chambers and a thinner h/gasket --cos citroen were aware of the h/gaskets blowing on the original tj4 engine ,they first changed to an MLS gasket ,but when they did a redesign they still used MLS but made it thinner , better heat transfer
check out all modern design engine they all use very thin gaskets
