I agree with your disagreement. I'm a big fan of Chili paste (sans vinegar), and if you need to go spice ancho is a great way to go, but cayanne always seemed to be hot for the sake of hot, and not for any underlying taste. Which to me isn't really the point, unless you're just masking really awful flavors.
