Replying to Dadcam thoughts

What does everyone think about the popularity of using dadcams (like sony handycams) that went out of style years ago but are coming back now for edits and movies? Personally, I enjoy when they are used every once in a while in a movie/edit for aesthetic reasons to add a little bit of a retro feel to it, but I'm not a huge fan when the entire edit or movie is made using them. I just personally prefer a cleaner look. Also, though, I see the appeal of using them for a whole movie; they are very portable, easy for anyone to use, and you can find them for insanely cheap online.
