I will be using both. For me I hunt some very easy spots and I also hunt some areas where its a long/steep walk in and wanted to shed some weight to make that walk easier. Also, some of my easier spots don't have great trees for a climber. I think having multiple tools helps get the job done. There are multiple ways to get the job done so for me its per application so to speak
I think elevation isn't in the conversation nearly enough. I can manage shifty weight for deep spots reasonably well on gentle terrain, but if weight shifts on an assent or descent big trouble can result.
Going in deep and busting brush get a lot of attention, but I think just simply hunting elevation begs for careful gear selection.
