Default RE: Drop away or fletching contact rests?

I started with a spring steel fork rest on my first bow, and I had arrows pop off the rest at just the wrong time, twice, and not long after that, the first WB was on the market, so I switched to it hoping to avoid the same problem. I liked the orignal WB, except it was hard on my fletchings, and I didn't care for the rear loading only of the rest. Eventually, I got a TR drop zone and I liked it too, never had any real problems with it, but when I sold my last bow, I let the rest go with it, and I bought the new and improved WB and have also switched to the blazer vanes no, and I shoot as good with the new WB as I ever did with the TR drop zone.
What I wonder is how many guys preach that a fall away rest is the only way, BUT yetpreach that mechincal broadheads are the deveils curse because of possible failures with the moving parts??[8D]
