A topic like this can easily turn vague, so it really helps when people describe the tradeoffs they faced and what mattered most in the end.
One reason I like threads like this is that they create space for practical thinking instead of just general advice. A lot of people only realize what really matters after they compare options, ask follow-up questions, or go through a real decision.

Threads like this usually become more valuable when people explain why their answer changed over time.
