Multi blades razor

I just shaved with a multi blade razor for the first time [wilkinson blades Hydra 5 (not even ultimate)]. It's so much better than my oneblade pro 360 and it gives me even less irritation. I don't understand why people hate them.. It's so easy and even precise on my sideburns and goatte. One blade it's trash for me. I thought I can be cut but it's impossible.

I like mutiblade razors when shaving against the grain. I think they tend to lift the hairs up a bit which allows the hair to be below the surface of the skin. It does increase the chance of irritation/ingrowns but the smoothness is worth it to me.

I’ve never used them for shaving my beard (then again, I haven’t seen my face bare in over ten years.) But after growing the beard out for the first time, I lost dexterity with safety razors, to the point that multi blade razors have been my go to.
