Wolf Tooth CTRL pedals for ultra?

I’m in the market for some new pedals, having happily ridden Look X-Tracks for a number of years. I’m strongly considering the Wolf Tooth CTRL pedals due to the larger platform even though it’ll be for a road/gravel bike. I like my X-tracks over Shimano pedals precisely because they have a bit more contact area, and the weight of the CTRL pedals is actually less than my X-tracks. I’ve got good shoes, so the added stiffness from a larger platform isn’t really the concern, it’s more about comfort over long/multiple days.

Anyone have hands-on (foot-on?) experience with these, or similar experience going to a larger platform?

Also: yes I know the ALT pedals are more comparable to X-track, my question is really about the possible additional benefit of an even larger platform than I have now.
