I think it would be wise to point out that often times inexperience gives too much importance to the branches. In general, and specifically on deciduous trees, branches can be built after the trunk has been. Giving too much preference to well-placed branches at the detriment of the trunk is to be avoided.

I've always heard/read/thought that dwarf varieties are NOT preferable. I think there are some notable exceptions, but in general dwarfs grow a lot more slowly than ...non-dwarfs. There is much less vigor as well.
