Default Table Saw - 14" blade?

I have a 12/14 Delta table saw. Made in 1966.
It'a single phase.

It has a 3hp motor and will cut just about anything
with no problem.

The only advantage to a 14" blade is the depth of
cut.

The big disadvantage is the cost and lack of
variety in 14" blades.

Seems to me I prefer a bigger saw than just a 10 incher. The table is
really small for a x-cut sled too. I know bigger isn't always better,
but it seems like the bigger table/power/resaw capacity of a 14" saw
really has its benefits. Any downside?
