While I am not looking forward for any automatic controls, I agree with the OP that FBW will significant improve performance. I believe the lost of performance due to inaccurate pilot input, un centered yaw string (heavy foot), non optimal flap position (I estimate I am flying in non optimal flap position maybe 30% of the time especially when doing a lot of transitions), flying too slow/too fast etc hurts performance more than the difference in glide performance between modern gliders.
