When I used to sell boats I was often asked what do you paddle. I was constantly explaining that wasn't relevant, and trying to steer the question back to "how do you paddle" or "how do you want to paddle" or "how do you think you'll paddle". Everyone needs to buy the boat best suited to _their_ needs. Happy Paddling to All in whatever craft makes you happy!
