Should I trade my Echos for HomePods?

Question

I’m want to get rid of my five Echos throughout the house and replace them with HomePods. I use Apple Music to play music through the house but Alexa just never wants to play the music I request no matter how many different ways I request the music. If I were using HomePods, I could just airplay to all of them. Outside of playing music, I use my Echos to adjust my hue lights, manage other third party lights and plugs, set timers, and basic requests. No huge automations.

Please talk me out of this pricey headache!
