The main reason I did it on my last KR is that I wanted to be able to experiment in the future with different types of wing tips, extension, or maybe winglets in the future so I wanted something strong to attach them. Others might have different reasons.

Why not go with the foam spar extensions instead of extending the spars with wood. The foam is lighter and being on the wing tips the form has proven to be strong enough.
