AFAICT this applies only to Pfizer and Moderna, which are mRNA vaccines. The J&J and Astra vaccines are more 'traditional' and use adenovirus as a delivery mechanism.

Does that mean you are a proponent of the more traditional vaccines like AZ and J&J, or the NovaVax one?

No, I find those even more risky. The Novovax one in particular has a unique set or risks (circulating spike protein), combined with lower efficacy (because it doesn't stimulate T cell immunity).
After thorough analysis I took the Moderna one. If you're above 25, the risk from Covid is bigger than any vaccine risk. But I do assume I also took some risk with the Moderna shot. It's basically choosing the lesser evil.
As an example, see lead, asbestos, mercury, or other heavy metals poisonings.
As Taleb says, absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
As a specific point regarding these vaccines, we don't really know the long term effect of the lipid nano particles used in them. And we do know that it took 20 years to create them, because all previous lipid nano particles tried were proven to be highly toxic.
