Only rarely would you want 1000 anyway because of the challenge of finding the subject. It's an adjustment at 800 and in bushes for closer small birds sometimes I can't find them.

Naw - I'd be @ 700 in that case. I only own the 1.4X III currently but your point is certainly well taken.
I'd be happy to "struggle " with the 400 DO II.
