Setting up the triple requires a touch more skill than 2x cranks. I'd prefer a 2x if I never took on random hill climbs that I'm not familiar with. Once the 3x is dialed in with the cable pull, it's very nice knowing the option is there to drop into crawl mode.
I've yet to "walk" it up a hill, not planning to start anytime soon! 3x ftw!
