Platform advice

I am looking to get into saddle hunting and think I’m going to use three wild edge steps for a platform as it seems to look easier to maneuver around for shots. I am pretty sure I will be a leaner since I stand 90% of the time in stand anyways. Does anybody have any opinions of the wild edge vs a platform for leaners ?
 
I would imagine WE stepps are easier on the feet than ameristeps, which I used for a long time, but still similaur . When I was on a ROS I was 50/50 leaner/sitter. Now that I have been using a platform I'm 90% leaner and it's really comfortable. I am presently using a LW climbing seat and have a predator platform on order. With the climbing seat I can side load it a whole lot but I also don't need to maneuver around the tree to get most shots off.
 
The up side to the steps is that you can make a platform to put inside one. So in theory you can have a step to either side of a platform if you would like. Lots of info on here to make one of those.
