But I still remember hearing all the folks who say they prefer to use the hand priming method. So I am wondering if there is some bad experience waiting to bite me down the road?

IMO no. If you take the time to set it up right you should be very happy. I had to make a couple of tweaks in the first week I had my classic turret and the safety prime has worked near flawless since, that was five years ago. Make sure the safety prime is lined up right and if the trigger drag's the primer back out of the cup on the lever then add a washer under the bracket that holds it. Sometimes it will take two washers but that is very rare.

Started with a Lee hand primer very early in the game. It's quicker

I would agree if all you want to do is prime brass. If you are loading then it defeats the purpose of the turret press having to take the case in and out a few times. I doubt you will be able to load close to 200 rounds an hour hand priming which is not hard to do using the safety prime.
