So is the slim kinda just a dud? seems like it has been completely bypassed and everyone is on the Max.

There are use cases for the slim but overall the Max is the way to go. They are both heavy compared to a prone setup. The Max gives you significantly more run time when you need it and has the option of a sport battery to lower the weight. Sport battery gives me 30-45 min of run time and the max power gives me 45-60+min of run time. I believe in the same ride in place conditions I would get about 20min from the slim which is just frustrating as your starting to find your groove at that point.
The slim would make a good dw assist if that's your primary use case. But I'll be honest I usually just take my bigger battery on dw run as the extra weight is not that significant and it's always nice to have extra margin.
