Different systems have different attributes. While I'm not a huge proponent of FPTP, one of its best features is that the public can kick out the bums. There are plenty of departing Tories who I have no desire to see in public life. That's a valid opinion for voters to be able to express.

That's true, but that needn't be a problem under AMS. The regional preference lists could be limited to open candidate primaries and two terms max except for key party officials (one per region). Also there are (were?) a few diddies amongst safe seats under FPTP that you can't eject.
