What was the question ? I lost track!
It's bollocks. There are good soaps and bad soaps and tallow is not what separates one from another.
Noooo, don't do it. Within two weeks you would get bored stupid even though Valobra is a wonderful soap, next you will be saying you are getting rid of all of your razor's and just using one! Madness I tell ya! ;-)Yes, I agree to a large extent. However, let me add another angle: it's easier to get a quasi decent shave from a bad tallow soap than with a bad vegan. The biggest "issue" IMO is not so much any glaring differences, but rather to decipher the cornucopia of reviews of any given shaving soap on the Internet as reviewers are just as varied as the soaps they are reviewing and I think they (just as we) can become jaded over time. After awhile the different soaps can meld into a numbing blur and our "wow factor" bar quite elevated.
Some days I think I should just give away all my soaps and use one puck of Valobra.

Well as long as you have a change of razor, I couldn't imagine having only one, would be like my cart days!Too late on the razors as I sold the vast majority last Fall & this Spring in two waves. After years I know what works best for my face regarding razors and only really use three most of the time: Tech, Krona & PAA Prismatic. I kept a few injectors as well just to add spice to the mix.
...I get through a vegetal soap much quicker than a tripple milled soap.
You can triple-mill tallow or veg soap. The resultant hard soap will always outlast an unmilled soap.
True!...yes agreed, but very few artisan vegetal soaps are tripple milled for obvious reasons...
This.There Has Been a Lot of Wars on Forums about Tallow Soaps & Vegan Soaps..More So in the USA..It has been Asserted for Many Years that a High Quality Tallow Soap is Hard to Beat..So Much So that Loads of USA so Called Artisan Soap Makers have Jumped on the Tallow Bandwagon..
The one thing that Traditional Tallow Soaps have Often Lacked is Fancy Scents..The USA Soap Makers Know this & Attempted to Reinvent the Wheel with Highly Scented so Called Tallow Soaps..The Problem is that Most of them are Pseudo Tallow Soaps..They are Vegan Soaps with Added Tallow Oil what ever the Hell that is..Stirling Soaps are One of them..
They are not Tallow Based Soaps..They are Vegan Soaps with an Addition of Tallow Oil & most of them are Total Crap..Most of the Worlds Best Traditional Tallow Soaps all Come from Southern Europe..Most Come from Italy..
