Kuzma 4Points and Lyra carts

Spherical/Conical tip still in use by professionals because it’s more forgiving to tonearm adjustment errors. This is the only benefit of this type of stylus shape. In other words: if your tonearm (or cartridge in the headshell ) can’t be adjusted properly for some reason then only conical tip is optimal for such arm. 
On any other tonearm (adjusted properly) for specific cartridge , the music flow is much better with advanced stylus profile. Practically it is better, because the life span is at least 4 times longer and record wear factor is so much lower since the weight distributed over the larger groove contact area. The quality is better, resolution is higher, tracking ability is better. 

But personal taste is personal taste, some people enjoy gramophone sound with steel needle.

It’s not everything, but life span of a conical is short, hard to argue about it. When the same cartridge  retipped with advanced profile people are more happy (read about those Denon enthusiasts :). I don’t know anyone who will go backwards (from advanced to conical on the same cartridge). Conical can be more polite with super bright horn speakers, but it’s a compromise. I tryend enough carts with nude conical (very well polished tip) to say it’s definitely not my type of sound. I like deep bass and nice treble. If someone can sell a new cart with conical tip I don’t mind, not sure how they can explain it to the buyers.
