I don't think it's people being anti-barndoor just to be difficult. It's a lot of musicians with high end guitars, not wanting to cut into the side of the instrument to install a system that will soon be outdated. That's my take. I cringe when I see high end acoustics getting a huge hole cut out of the side. If the guitar comes with it then that's one thing, but aftermarket is another.
I really like the simplicity and ease of use of barndoor, controls but I tend to look for instruments that have it already installed. I also tend to not spend a ton on those guitars. I mean, I really love my Godin A8 mandolin for the external controls, but it also wasn't super expensive.
