I didn't want to call this post Filling Systems because I know that is a different component. I currently own 3 pens. A Pilot Metropolitan, which is decent, a Faber-Castell Loom, which I love, and a Pelikan M200, which I love even more. All these pens fill from the gap between the nib and the section. But I've heard that some pens fill from the breather hole. Especially Sailor pens. Is this true? And if so, is it worthwhile to own a Sailor pen/ pens that fill this way?

I received a beautiful Faber Castell Loom for Christmas and I was just wondering why the nib doesn't have a breather hole? It's a beautiful and unique looking nib, but I just thought the lack of a hole was interesting. Anyone know?? I have noticed that when I remove the cap (to write), that there's little to no nib creep from the air pressure change--which I LOVE! My Safaris and Metropolitans have pretty substantial leakage whenever I remove the caps. Thanks! Sorry for the poor quality pic.
