I agree with OP,
people who disagree with OP, seems they lack info about speedlites
probably they never use Quantum and know the difference

Yes, there is not enough power if you try overpower the sun with your flash. Yes, the flash will overheat and have slowed recycled times if you use it at full power for long bursts. Yes, flash is not portable if you try to stuff it into your pocket. And yes, it has low cost to benefit ratio if you buy a $500 Canon Speedlite but don't use all the features or power. So when I qualify your assertions about flash, you are entirely correct. Yeah, great answer. Image Editing OK

There are limitations, but they are capable of great things. I have a set of alien bees, and a speedlite set and I use each when the situation is appropriate. There are things one cannot do that the other can. Like this one as well. If I had room for a studio in my home I'd have both systems as well. Image Editing OK

Drives me absolutely crazy. As well as 'vice' versus 'vise'... you do not use a pair of 'vice grips'.

'Vise grips' are a tool. 'Vice grips' are your fingers, holding a cigarette or a drink. Or vice versa? I use manual exposure settings on the copy machine

I understand what they can do and what they cannot do. Like my camera body and each of my lenses, they are tools I use to take exposures. I use manual exposure settings on the copy machine
