Am I the only one who thinks a 2-stroke is better than a 4-stroke for trail riding?

My buddy Jake told me last weekend that he swapped back to a 2-stroke after 5 years on a 4-stroke, said the lighter weight and instant throttle made him enjoy riding again. It got me thinking maybe I've been overvaluing torque and fuel economy when half my trails are tight and muddy. Anyone else feel like 4-strokes get too much hype for technical stuff?

Sold my 4-stroke after dumping it three times in one muddy creek crossing, no regrets.

Same pattern as people who ditch heavy SUVs for small trucks off road.
