Hi Grim,
Your thought process went much like mine...
Triton was on sale, but still pricey, and I saw some questionable comments about them.
Then a few weeks went by... Hitachi combo was on sale... I got it!!
You could get whatever is on sale... I got my H. at Rockler...
I really like to grab Amazon stuff onsale... with FREE shipping... super nice!
I think you've zeroed in on some very good routers... (IMHO)...
But, it's still like what one you like the best...
When I was a kid, my relatives, at a big dinner like Thanksgiving, would sit around argue which was better... Chevy or Ford... they would go back & forth for hours... one would mention special features one had that the other didn't... and there would be a counter comment... and around around they went...
I can see the same thing happening here with routers...
So, pick what you like & go for it... & let it be... If you're like Bob, you will end up buying the other routers anyway... so why sweat it?!
