Well that is what a gut reaction is. I don't have to qualify a gut reaction. That is the point, it is a reaction without thought, just instinct. My instinct tells me that I want to stay away. Again, not because I think it's bad, but because other alternatives exist that satisfy me.

And as for whether or not my gut reaction is right or wrong (it is probably wrong in this case, but no matter), if you go against it, you better have good cause to do so. I don't have any reason to do so at the moment.

Finally, let me be clear, I NEVER said it was bad. I only implied that other things exist that I am more comfortable with.
