I'm confused on this question. If someone asks you, "Between a BMW that needs repair (without a sunroof) and a functional Dodge Saturn (with a sunroof), which will you prefer?" you don't answer "Well, the Dodge Saturn, because work tomorrow morning." The question is not asking "What works?", but you're all giving that kind of answer. Is it possible to ask indeed what this question is asking? Can we detach the "I need to launch YESTERDAY!" attitude from these types of questions? [MOAR EDIT:] Add in the qualification to the BMW/Saturn analogy that you're planning a road trip. [EDIT:] To emphasize, the question asks, "Which will you prefer..." rather than "Which do you prefer..." It seems like the OP is trying to sideline the "functionality of today" question, which frankly given the rapid rate of growth[0] and adoption altogether[1], "what works today", "APIs available today" is largely negligible.
