2 cents from a Rookie so take it for what it's worth.

I put my FlARM on Stealth for the Nationals - worked just as good to find people I could not see quickly and were close enough that is was comforting to find them.

I bought Flarm originally to see power traffic coming down out of a cloud on IFR when I get a little too close to cloud base - it still does that nicely.

When I am at home if I want to know where other gliders are I just call them on the radio and they tell me location, height and if they have "great lift" - so I am not sure if/why I will change the FLARM config file.

I have competed in pretty high level sports and have no disire to gain tactical advantage by seeing other gliders outside on eyesight range - true sport is about the inner game, which is where satisfaction really lives Some winners are never satisfied with their performance.

Stealth worked well makes sense for contests.
