Blades or cavity backs? Which type of irons truly gives you more control and feel in your game?

One of the problems I have with the forgiving nature of cavity back/ perimeter weighting is that the off-centre hit reaches the greenside bunker, but the same shot with the blade falls short of the bunker leaving an easier shot in.
Centre strike from both gives no noticeable difference to me. Swings and roundabouts.
Playing with cavities does not make the game easier. But everyone is free to make their own choice.
Blades for good players and cavities for weaker players is nonsense in my view.
In 53 years of golf, I've probably played more years with cavities, but that could equalise soon.
