That's a REALLY false choice. All of us are limited by what we CAN put 
up, both by our real estate (including legal restrictions) and cost. A 
smart ham will apply MANY criteria when choosing which antenna(s) are 
best for his QTH and operating needs. Mutliband SWITCHING is only one of 
those design criteria, and rarely the most important one.
