Default Springs: retention or cones?

Been awhile since we had a good rant thread on here, and I know there's no shortage of strong opinions.

So.... for best real-world performance, should springs be retained? Or are cones the way to go? I know cones look cool in the mags & on the ramp, but do they really outperform flexy, retained springs on the trail? Seems those funny yet endearing English like the cone action. But I don't see too many in actual use 'round here. Could it be... that cones are for the glossy shots and retainers are for those who actually get body damage? Or are retainer-heads missing the boat & cones are where it's at? Are cones rollover city? Or do retained springs limit your flex appeal ?

Discuss, pontificate, or otherwise expound.
