*i will say that i usually overexpose skin just a touch, as it's a bit more flattering than underexposing or properly exposing, especially at f/9 or f/10 where every pore is in focus. overexposing a little bit helps to minimize that.

Well, the readers should realize that you're almost always controlling your light with supplemental light and I'm almost always shooting in the wild. Even on location you're usually adding light and, of course, in your studio most of the light is controlled. We're shooting two totally different scenarios, typically. If I were shooting in a studio, I'd almost always pick my 5D2 over my 7D. You just have several extra margins for producing detail and avoid noise.
BTW, love your work. That latest blond you put up is killer and I like all the poses on your site.
