Rega RB300 arm & Sumiko Blackbird - good match?

It's been so long since I've thought about/looked into arm/cartridge matching (18 months??) I've forgotten the guidelines regarding compliance and arm effective mass.

I've liked the Blackbird on other setups and am considering going back to a MM cart (from my Ortofon Kontra H). So, I'll just ask: does the Blackbird mate well with the RB300?

Roy Gandy (creator of the RB300) sure doesn't have anything good to say about the Blackbird, but then again, Roy thinks VTA adjustment is a waste of time and that you should just let your stylus clean your records, and then clean your stylus.

So if you disagree with Roy, that may make you ... normal.
