A lot of things to love about this guitar, including rounded fretboard edges, locking tuners, the ability to add the neck position to position 1&2, and the 12" fretboard radius (though I doubt these frets are level enough to significantly lower the action beyond 9.5" limits).

However, what prevents me from wanting one is the Fender "noiseless," pickups, which are just stacked humbuckers voiced to sound as close to a single coil as possible. When I pick up a strat, I want real deal single coil pickups.

A strat is the easiest to modify, Buy a pickguard and your favorite pickups (Mine are Bill Lawrence) and take your time to wire it up with 2 wires to the output jack hanging. Search for wiring diagrams - All big names have them, No name pickups you follow fender wiring.

Take off the old pickguard carefully. Desolder the output jack, Desolder the cavity and body ground wires. Solder the pickup wires to the output jack, Ground open wires and voila you are done. If you don't like where you are with the new pickguard just do the same to go back. Keep the pickguard so when you sell it you can offer the buyer a choice of the original setup or your upgraded pickguard.
