I also think it's useful for there to be comparison videos and such, the bit that seems odd to me is when someone owns and likes one of them and buys another just to see if it's better. I'm probably reading too much into it but it always looks a bit like people don't want to be satisfied - grass is greener and so on.
Also I tend to find limitations a bit inspiring. If you can do anything then there are too many possibilities. Restrict it a bit and the mind focusses.
...I wonder what my pedalboard cost? Best not think about it...
I'm in a good place now, I have guitars I love, 2 amps I love and helix plus a few other select fx I love.
All I need to do now is write some decent music in the time I don't have.
Selling a bunch of pedals for a plugin doesn't seem as good of a deal as getting a HW Helix and the discounted software. You don't get a HW discount if you pay full price for the software. So it's a very expensive way to go if I did want a HW unit. I'm assuming you can get the discounted plugin if you buy a used HW unit?
I'm not in a rush for it though. Think I'll wait for a few updates first, the lack of resizing on Native is really annoying me. It might be user friendly as a HW unit but I don't like it as a plugin UI at all. There are good sounds in it though.

In my old band I had to 2 separate boost pedals (same model) for band use. Both of them had different settings. What I like with modelling is that you aren't just getting all the Amps, Effects and Cabs, but you can have multiple instances as well.
I think its pretty cool that you can have 2-3 (or more) of the same pedal model if you can find an appropriate use age for it.
Now to look in to a couple of them Mission Engineering expression pedals and I should be set for the rest of my life.... or until the next generation of modeling, then it will be time to upgrade!
As previously said before.... this allows me now to focus on buying guitars instead of other more necessary equipment haha
Helix floor model ordered. Holding you lot responsible for this...I'm now committed.
I took nearly the full 30 days to bond with mine and get it working as I wanted.
My only real tip is stereo (not dual) cabs with a smudge of reverb before the cab on one side if you want an airy feel.
I'm not expecting to use it live, just a toy for home and home studio. I'm sure it'll find its way to a rehearsal and go direct into PA as well. Anyone wanna buy a minty GT-100 ?? :-)
