thin kerf or reg keft ts blades?

The argument for TK was less wood, less dust, thicker wood capacity
My thoughts is TK is also going to wobble more, cut rougher.
I don't see any particular extra flutter during cut that is significant,
but do notice it on startup. (Of course, the PM66 flings it to speed a
heck of a lot quicker than do many smaller ts's or contractors' models.)
I've gotten a few dings in the blade insert from that w/ them that
doesn't happen otherwise.
I only use the thin kerf rip version when I double-gang them for cutting
tenons--they work fine as far as the quality goes. If I'd had the
opportunity to try it first, I'd have gone w/ a regular thickness to
avoid the above issue, but I didn't have a pair of identically matched
and so for the purpose when I made the purchase seemed a reasonable
choice...
