I've sat on the fence.

On one hand I like the formalised neat perfect Japanese styles, but at the same time the looser more informal relaxed Chinese styles are very appealing too.

I see it like this: The Japanese styles are "stylised representations" of trees, and the Chinese styles are more what trees actually look like.
