Dave, you're a young guy. Young people really have no idea how they will feel about something decades later. And you seem to be intellectually curious, which increases the likelihood of "adjustments" to how you view things as life goes on. Today you love CTE and related techniques; whether that remains true the rest of your life is currently unknown.
I'll never use anything but CTE forever. It's the ONLY way to play, imo. I'm not saying that out of emotion - it's logic.
