Sure you aren't... there are lots of us, and we aren't half wits or "po dunkers" as others suggest.

>>I'am not against any of them I just think someone can use either, so i'ts not Black or White, not both, it can be Black, White or Grey.<<

We actually use a lot of Oracle SP's at one site because we think it is best. It is a custom interface, no other customer will ever need it, the customer asked for SP. At most clients we use SPT for interfacing to other systems. We could use RVs but we want to have a standard dbc used by all customers and we cannot control the other systems, so we'd rather not build such differences into our dbc. The dbc has our RVs which work against oracle, sql server, cache, interbase, sybase or local tables, depending on the customer budget and existing infrastructure. I shudder to imagine replicating that using SP(!) or SPT.

Our biggest customer using the above application has 450 fat client terminals. Works well.
