Not hesitant, just personal preference. Probably like that for a lot of people here. I used Linux on desktop (later, laptop) for a long time, since the late 90s - went through so many phases, "not enough RAM to run X", barebones X, "emacs for everything", enlightenment, gnome desktop, etc.

At some point the churn got to me and I stopped customising my computer environments. Just use the defaults. By this time OSX was a "real UNIX" and I hopped over. No regrets. It does what I need it to do, which is still mostly to run a terminal and a browser.

I will say that reliably turning on and off when I close the lid is a great quality of life improvement.
