Paddle Strop vs. Hanging (regular?) Strop for a newbie. What are the pros and cons?

I went with the Paddle Strop because:

1. My wife won't let me hang a strop anywhere.
2. The Paddle Strop is easier for a newbie to get right.
3 The Paddle Strop gives you more options.
4. Getting technique right seems easier on a flat strop.
