Bunks vs Rollers.
I think the ramp plays the biggest part. A well designed ramp with a good down angle and you are all set with either.

A friend and I launched one day at a almost flat ramp low tide. I rolled my boat off. Back wheels just touching the water. He had bunks and had to put half his truck into the water to get deep enough for us to pull it off.

If you only trailer to GOOD designed ramps, it's never going to be an issue.

I like to get around and I trailer all the time. I prefer rollers just for that one time at a bad ramp. But if I had to buy a new trailer I think the difference in cost might push me to bunks.

Love Fishing, wish I caught fish more often.
