I thought the same thing about the streamer, but the little Ivan would benefit from a small chute. I was actually able to fit a small nylon chute in mine! And the Javelin came with a 12" chute and really only needs a streamer. I think Semroc just tries to release these kits as close to the original as possible. If things like Kevlar shock leaders can be introduced to the kits to improve them, then maybe a benficial change in the recovery device should be looked at too.
