How is it better than WE in performance?
I had the same predicament when I decided to go AK between GHK and WE. In the end, after my research, I bought the WE and immediately upgraded the FCG and I was still <= $200 ahead than a stock GHK. I also added a short stroke kit (which is easily removable) for $30 and I'm still ahead.
It's not like I don't like GHK, and will probably get one in the future to facilitate better comparison.
But I do know GHK has common issues shareable from their M4's such as feedlips and hop units, and I know that the GHK AK still needs upgraded FCG parts just like the WE does.
So in the end, do you want to buy an object because the brand name is popular and in favour, or do you really want to break it down comparatively and see the real pros and cons of each brand?
