Straight razors, single edge razors, double edge razors, cartridge razors and electric shavers/trimmers are all tools to accomplish a purpose. I use all of them.
1. I use an electric shaver/trimmer to trim my sideburns, eyebrows, and mustache and to remove hair from my ears and nostrils.
2. I keep a cartridge razor in the shower to shave the back of my neck a few times each week.
3. I shave my face with some combination of straight razors, SE razors and DE razors.
Perhaps you could use a single tool to accomplish everything, but I find it easier to use a specific tool for a specific purpose. For me, it works better that way. If another tool works better for you, feel free to use it.
