Agreed. However, let's assume that all types of protection have their ideal niche in which to fit. So, to use your example, you just came upon the mega outlet which is suited for all plug types, and luckily you have each type of plug. All types of plugs could be used, but most people have a preference for one over the others.
For example, all things being equal, I would grab the hex or the tricam. I trust passive over active pro when hey both fit well. I am always sketched about placing wired nuts in a horizontal. I also like that hexes tend have a greater surface area than nuts at a given crack size. And tricams are just amazing in horizontals.
I'm only trying to determine others' preferences and reasons.
