No cold tank.

So what, cold tanks are a useful reserve when some prat floods out the
neighbourhood by the misuse of a junior hacksaw.

Less pipe work.

Not really, in most houses it amounts to a couple of metres of 22mm to
the coil, 3 metres of mains pressure 15mm cold feed and about 3 metres
of 22mm for the hot tank feed. 30 minutes installation at the most.

Mains pressure showers, so no silly power shower pump.

As long as you like lukewarm/scalding/freezing/lukewarm repeat ad
infinitum showers

You never run out hot water.

Probably because you don't have any in the first place

Can stay in the shower for ever.

Some people wish you would

Equal pressure at all taps, so mixers can be easily installed everywhere.

Mixer taps are the spawn of the devil, liked by the French who never
use taps (and stink) and the Germans who could make a tap last 1000
years that would be incapable of filling a bath in less than 999 years

Instant hot water at all times.

Instant lukewarm dribble is more correct.

I am not a jolly amateur.

No, you are a failed plumbing counter assistant who flooded out 3
London boroughs because of a incident with a junior hacksaw.
