Default Turbos vs. normal SNGs

from reading the forum, it appears that the general consensus is that it is easier to beat normal speed SNGs for a higher ROI. Some posts suggest that this is because the faster the blinds escalate, the more "luck" comes into play, reducing the edge that good players possess.

This seems odd to me. in fact i would suggest the exact opposite.

I think it's fair to say that the most important SNG skill is endgame ability. endgame is where most players play worst, therefore giving good players most of their edge.

essentially, turbos create more endgame situations, and reduce low-blind waiting time. (in low-blind situations, the best players have a smaller advantage than in the endgame).

granted, i just started playing on a site that has Turbos, but so far, my expectations have been surpassed even. they seem to be extremely easy games to me.

i'd like to hear some arguments from the other side here.
