I also do a weekly (at least) departure from and arrival into DTW. I've had positive experiences, but have found that if I arrive at (I believe?) A34 whichever is the last gate before the split, the GA cannot see the aircraft arrive and I've had to sit there to be deboarded occasionally.
I do like the fact that going from A4 to B2, I pass by 3 WorldClubs to stop in for a drink!
