Which of the two Thief dagger classes now feels better to play?

I wasn't sure if this was a serious question at first because of how obvious the answer is.

Well I wasn't too sure. JoeTang's damage calculations shows that Shadowers deal more damage than Dual Bladers, which on top of Meso Guard mean it's a class that's both tough and deals the most damage out of the non-Legend Thieves. However, seeing pretty much everyone here likes their Dual Bladers over Shadowers, I see playstyle is trumps raw class mechanics like Meso Guard and doing a little more damage. There's also the fact I didn't know that even with revamps to Shadowers, that Dual Bladers are still more fluid to play (a big factor).
