What a weird idea that there is any sort of rivalry between two data types used in the same science. I have a hard time believing that any geospatial science professor is in a war over this. Analogously this would be like two carpenters having a war over saws vs hammers. They are both indispensable tools in carpentry. Sometimes you saw something and then use a hammer on the next step, sometimes you hammer something and saw something next. It’s… You use both. You’ll always use both.
