^^^^I agree.

A good isolate has a lot of advantages for certain uses. Namely pre and post workout. Obviously it would be great for a general supplement too.

But a regular mix (assuming is meets label claims) is still very good if you either can't afford the extra dough or if you consider the difference for pre and post between doing nothing and having ANY kind of whey. And a regular mix is going to do the job as a general supplement quite well. Any quipping over amino profiles and a little difference here and there is bs, imo, and is missing the point.

But speaking strictly in general terms, if the percentage of protein in your whey is a make or break deal for you, then there is something seriously wrong with your diet. It's like worrying about buying some fancy designer pharmaceutical vitamin b because you refuse to eat properly.

So for my answer to the original question. Is the TP isolate worth the extra money? I'd say yes. Faster absorption. Comfort in terms of digestion. Do you absolutely need to spend the extra money? I'd say no. Is the percentage of protein in your whey the difference between success and failure? NO. Don't dip into your rent money is all I'm saying. But if you can afford it get the isolate OR get an isolate for pre/post and a general mix for general use.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
