Erich,
I agree,given its limited numbers and opportunities, the '262 was the best NF of the war. I also concur with your views on the deleterious effect that incessant modifications imposed on the Do335 (and other ac)
My preference for the Do335 over the 262 is predicated on its superior range, loiter time, and reliability...not (surprise )performance. It had sufficient performance to deal with any forseeable enemy NFs. Good enough is enough, in this case.
