I agree with all that and to me the key with a four wheel bag is that it rolls well. Not all of them are the same in that regard. A good rolling 4 wheel back is the way to go for me. The bag I mentioned above does well even on think carpet in the hotel and that is often a struggle for the cheaper four wheel bags.
