Folks aren't trying to get 250-300 bpa. Average is closer to 150 in Alabama if memory serves me correctly.

I'm doing T&M on about 1/3 of my fields right now and rotating it with summer stuff. I am going to increase my number of T&M fields. The reason I'm not converting all at one time is that my soil is so poor in some spots that I've noticed your first year of T&M may not work out very well. It takes a year or two to get some good thatch going like what you see on the video. However, once it is there, it's great.
