Most people should really use the standard construction. There is no issue about durability. Main benifit of carbon is the weight saving (about 800 grams), and costs CYP 45-50 extra. Carbon boards come with 3x1 inserts (not 3x3) in order to keep the weight down so a specified stance is needed.
If someone wants to spend the extra money, he won't be disappointed.
