Electronic vs. Pneumatic TE

Just got a LX V7 and was wondering about opinions regarding the TE function. I have a pneumatic TE in the glider, but was just wondering if the electronic might be better.
The whole TE concept is really a mathematical process and if the unit has a good Pitot and Static source it should be able to get the TE without a probe, just by calculation.
I've had false reading with some pneumatic system due to yaw (poor coordination, I know), which the electronic system may be able to avoid.
What's your opinion?
many years ago i made such analog device for hang-glider based on speed (propeller fan) and hang-glider loads (transfer kinetic and geopotential energy)
and compensation worked well
sensitiveness was about 10 cm/s
