Who would have won this year's America's Cup. AC72 or AC75

Just a thought about the two formats. Especially interesting if they had kept the 72's and developed them further. I'm all for pushing the boundaries but I did think the 75's a bit of a show boat, more about making something unusual because they can than making the best. It is the Kiwi way and often results in some fantastic new ideas but with hindsight was it the right way to go and will they continue with it.

Can they make a monohull that can climb out of the water faster after they fall off the foils.
