Ofcourse different hobbyist have different preference but don't you think the usual lines of "get an LED, we are in the new era!" is a bit over rated? :P Instead, it should be something like "go with what you like and here are the pros/cons of each type"? Now can I join?
It doesn't sound to me like you're anti-LED then. it sounds like you are anti-People-Who-Own-LEDs

Under the right circumstances, LEDs can save you money. No one has ever told me that LEDs are an equivalent replacement for MH. In fact, everyone (including LED owners) typically tell me that they can NOT replace MH.

You don't own an LED fixture so you're in
