+1. I too am more likely to get weepers and even a nick with a safety razor and I began shaving with DEs in the early 1960s. Not that I cut myself every time I shave with one, but I have to be more careful than when shaving with a straight. For the past four or five years I'll only shave with a DE if I am running late. Usually a Merkur slant/Feather or one of a small variety of vintage GIllettes. Sometimes an old Barbasol if I'm in the mood for that beast. Mostly the smooth silky feel of the straight though.
