I don't use switches because of all of the above, but also because I distroyed a lipo with one.

The switch was on the speed control, so I thought it turned the power off. Wrong!! there is still a trickle amount draining the battery. I left one pluged in, but off, for 2 months and found the lipos totally drained and totally worthless. (Jeti Controller)

So I also carry a grudge against switches.
