Ewa's M cut and the bands

What's been everyone's experience with the M cut? Do all the bands run so freaking tight??? Do they ever break in? I never order her 65 bands anymore because my ideal stretched band length these days is 26.5-27.5 and I know with my luck I'll get a TTS 65 band, and if a 60 band comes up to 27" or so then I'm perfectly fine with that. But I got a 60FF M Chaberek yesterday that stretches to 25.25." I've triple checked it since I'm sure my measurement will get flagged, and that's literally as far as I can stretch it without fearing I'll damage it. It has lace on the band and doesn't feel like it'll break in, ever. I put an extender on it and it now stretches to 26.75" and is comfortable like that. I need an undersized 28 band, I do not need an undersized 26 band and I am wondering what the hell happened here because that's so much undersized it's almost inexcusable.

Rambling here - the M cut itself is very promising on me. I'm in love with the low gore, the immediate depth, and the fact I don't fall out of the center - it's actually a true plunge, and the only true plunge I've found yet I can legitimately wear. If they ALL run *that* tight and I thought I could get a 65 that would only stretch to 27, I'd order a 65. I might even do a fit check with it. I haven't done a fit check in forever, but it's definitely too big on my right side which is now apparently about a 28E. I even put the pad in the right side and there's still a gap, but I'm not sure there's enough space on the left side to warrant sizing down. It's a new cut for me and for Ewa really, and I don't know if there will be enough space in the center if I were to get a 60F or a 65E or how the cup height and immediate projection would change. I've browsed bratabase for measurements and pics but there's not a lot of info yet.
