Default RE: Tail dragger conversion; Why?

When I moved from my NexStar to a Four Star, the one thing that was most highlighted by everyone else was the process I would have to undergo to learn how to handle a tail dragger. It took me about 30 seconds to realize that there are only advantages with a tail dragger and how much easier it was to handle. It got to a point where I wouldn't even consider buying anything BUT a tail dragger. Trikes in my opinion are more erratic and when you land, you cant make corrections like you do with a tail dragger that will allow for turning at high speed. It all boils down to stick input which expo might be able to correct if set properly.
