I know Doctari's article in the Accurate Rifle sings the praises of the 350 grain bullet for the 375 and this may be true for some bullets but using Woodleigh softs for much of anything seems like a giant step backwards.

Nosler broke the bullet performance barrier and others have followed suit (e.g. Swift). It just doesn't make sense to me to not use a partitioned or solid base bullet anymore, regardless of whether they have bonded front lead cores.

Admittedly I am more concerned about the 350 gr. solid, and I hope that Woodleigh has toughened those. That will be even more critical as being longer relative to diameter it is going to be more easily bent, all else being equal.
