Why is the smaller Bullfrog 23 at "23 s.f." more expensive than the Tadpole 23 at "35 s.f."? Weight difference shows the Bullfrog is lighter by 2 oz and uses the same fabrics: 40D 240T canopy, 33D 244T fly, 79D 210T floor. Does the Bullfrog simply have less mesh and more tent solid body for 4-season warmth?

Good question. Both are 3-season tents. The difference is in the poles. The Bullfrog uses the more expensive DAC Featherlite NSL Reverse Combi 7001 Aluminum & the tadpole uses the standard Dac FeatherLite 7001 Aluminum.
